Connection Refused

Hello -

Thanks for taking the time to wrap all this into a node-red module.

Question - I am seeing a connection refused error message when attempting to communicate using this module, wondering if you've run into it before or if you have any ideas.

Connecting using the node module works without issue:

pi@pi ~/lifx/node_modules/lifx $ node cli.js

Closing...

But when I try to start use the node-red module I see:

Have you run into this ?
Any ideas on working through it?

I upgraded the bulb to f/w 1.5 last night and am using the latest src from your repo.

Thanks !
