Auto turn off lights after 15 min of no motion

Configuration
1

How can I turn off lights when 2 motion detectors have both stopped receiving motion for at least 15 min. This was easy with one detector, but not sure how that logic would work with 2.

create a group from the two detectors. They will act together as one.

Pefect! I used something similar for my water detectors and completely forgot about that. Groups was exactly what I needed.
