Tried to use the esp02 firmware to update via OTA, not working.
Anyone got this working?
If you’re sure you have the correct .bin, try running it through Gzip to compress the .bin to .gz. Then do the OTA upload with the .gz file.
Perfect. It worked!

Great, glad you’re up!
Maybe flag this solution as Solved, so others can pick up on the technique.
Have fun with WLED 
I tried the same thing and I now I have a bulb with no AP or access so its .local, just sitting blinking orange endlessly. What do you think my options are?
I’m definitely not an expert on the Athom bulbs.
I seem to remember seeing some folks having success in opening some of these to be able to hardwire a reflash. You might do a search through the forum.
