Detect offline Tradfri Lamps

Configuration
1

Hi,

I wonder if there is any way to detect specifc Tradfri lamps, that are offline.
Maybe something like a device tracker for lamps?

The reason for this is that we still have normal light switches.
And my girlfrind is still using these old normal lights switches and don’t want me to install some smart switches.
So I have to deal with that :smiley:

In the Tradfri App I can see if a specific Lamp is offline.
But not in Home Assistant. In HA the Lamps keep staying on their last status (on/off) before they went offline.

Is there any way to configure Home Assistant to report offline lamps and have automations depending on their status?
(“Online/Offline” instead of “on/off”)

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have this same issue, would be great to have an automation that, when a Tradfri lamp is “turned on” using the normal light switches, that is detected by HA and triggers something (like assigning a color of temperature depending the light of the day)

Anybody that can help with this?

Thanks

I’m using the raspbee in combination with Ikea lights, when a light is physically turned off it is reported as unavailable
