Light switch through motion and switch, with timer resetted by timer

Have a look at Entity Controller from HACS - it will do what you want in half a dozen lines. Here’s mine:

  - bathroom_light:                               
      sensor: 
      - binary_sensor.bathroom_motion_sensor_motion  
      entities: 
      - light.bathroom_1
      delay: 600
      block_timeout: 600

If the motion sensor detects movement, the light comes on for ten minutes. (If movement is detected in that time the period is extended for another ten minutes.) If the light is turned on or off manually it stays in that state for ten minutes, then goes off if there is no movement.

PS… Avoid device triggers if you can…
