ESPHome and sun.is_below_horizon as Condition

ESPHome
1

So this is what i am trying to do.
I have an input from a occupancy sensor which operates day and night so I want to create an Automation in ESPHome to control how the lights operate.

So light 1 on Relay 1 to operate when triggered between sun.is_below_horizon: elevation: 5 and sun.is_below_horizon: elevation: 15

light 2 on Relay 2 to operate when triggered when sun.is_below_horizon: elevation: 5 thru to morning.

Input 2 is a manual override to switch both R1 and R2 and button 3 just toggles R1 & R2

I have it partially configured as below but I am not happy with it

    id: relay_2

status_led:
  pin:
    number: GPIO13
    inverted: false

So the problem is that when I activate trigger and when - sun.is_below_horizon: elevation 15 i get a short (milliseconds) activation of R!.

I was wondering if I could write some Lambda for the sun.is_below_horizon to return a state between >5 and <15 but I just get errors.
Any thoughts?
