Dimmer items don't display correct values

[cdjackson]

Let me know if this is working now...

This looks to be working... thank you! The states jump around a bit, but they seem to finally all get there!

Thanks.

I think the jumping states is caused by the update that set. The UI sets to (say) 100% when the device is at 0%, then there's a number of updates come in as the bulb changes. So, you will see 0% 100% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% (sort of thing). Short of changing the update rate I don't think there's a way around this at the moment - I know other bindings have the same issue and I've seen other discussions about how to solve this sort of thing.

One of my relays is now randomly shown as ON in OH although it is off. Is it possible the behaviour was introduced with this commit?
Strangely only one of two relays seems to be affected. But it's quite random, the state is ok for an hour or two and suddenly jumps to ON.

UPDATE:
Second relay is affected too, just took a bit longer.

It shouldn't be related to this but if the device is returning dimmer levels that aren't 0, then it might be the case that a value of 1 would have been interpreted as off in the past. In any case if the device is returning a non 0 value then it's a device issue. I'd suggest to open a new issue and provide a debug log and I'll take a look.
