Once in a while I had to replace some plug or light which was referenced in automations using a Device Trigger or Action. Of course now I have to update all automations manually so that they use the new device.
When using entity_id, this is easy to solve, because I can always give the new device the same entity id as the replaced one, and all automations will just keep working. But I prefer using Device Triggers since they are nicer to use from the UI.
How do you guys handle this? Any suggestions to automatically replace a device with another?
