""" Colors -
	light.color() takes a hue value 0-255
	this hue can be derived from several helper functions as follows:
	milight.color_from_hls(0.5, 0.5, 0.5)
	milight.color_from_rgb(255, 0, 0)
	milight.color_from_hex('#00ff00') """

	There are 10 party modes available for rgbw and rgb bulbs.

""" Custom Effects -
	The milight controller has supports to create repetitive commands and run them in a thread.
	The following is an example of fading in and out for 10 seconds. 
	You can also specify the # of repetitions by adjusting the reps parameter. (anything < 0 is infinite) """
