Put Laptop/workstation into Sleep mode

Configuration
1

I think I remember someone talking about using HA to put their computer into sleep mode using an existing component. I just can’t remember the details. :slight_smile: So If you are using HA to put your PC/Laptop to sleep in your automations, I’d love to hear how. I have a Windows 8 laptop with 3 monitors that just sucks energy so I’d like to use presence detection to put it to sleep ahead of the normal power plan built into the windows.

Thanks
