problem was with the motion sensor, which, I don’t know why, was on from 18:08 (when I left home) until I arrived back, at 23:33.

Yea well that makes sense.

@miguelpucela

One additional (related) question. Is there any option in the blueprint that allows the timeout to start from the off->on of the motion sensor instead of from the on->off?

No, it wouldn’t work correctly.

@miguelpucela

It would have one additional advantage, as some motion sensors (mine) stay in on state for a couple of minutes not to trigger so often and save battery.

If your sensor has a time delay already in it then set the time delay in the automation to “0”.

@miguelpucela

I could use it to avoid lights being on all the time if motion sensor is stuck in on state.

If you like try my blueprint State Notifications & Actions but the next update is what you need, be out soon. Then you could set up a notify to send you a message if your motion sensor is ON for X amount of time. Then you will know to reset it.
