Thanks for your kind words.
I can see that being a nice feature. I will add it to the list… keep an eye out for an update.

@Blacky is the sync function supposed to work for dim levels? It doesnt seem to keep them in sync… i have 4 dimmers and its not working to keep them the same dim level
Thanks for fixing the problem.
No problem at all, thanks for reporting the bug.

Hello Blacky,
Thanks for all your Home Assistant blueprints, they power a good percentage of my house.
Question about the automation mode and intended use of this blueprint.
The automation is set as:
mode: restart
Which means that if I have multiple unrelated lights as triggers, if a new one turns on, it will stop any timers currently running? Does this mean that the blueprint is intended to create a separate automation for each group of related light(s)?
Do you think it would be suitable to change the mode to parallel
if it was to be used with many independent lights as triggers?
Thanks,
Rex
Your welcome, glad it helps you out.
Why would you have unrelated lights as a trigger. Why not only use the lights you would like to trigger the automation?
It will restart the timer.
It just uses the light as a trigger and then turns it OFF after a set time if you chosen that option. The motion sensor option will keep the light ON and reset the timer.
Example of use. You using my sensor light blueprint to turn ON some lights but you also have a reading lamp you turn ON every now and then. When you turn the lamp ON manually and you use the motion sensor option with the same time delay set in your sensor light blueprint all your lights will stay ON when notion is detected. When you leave the room all the lights will turn OFF including the lamp you manually turned ON.
No, it is designed for a restart.

Thanks for the clarification. I had misunderstood it’s design intent.
