Sliders instead of the big Bulb?

Configuration
21

If you wish, you can add a name option to each light in the card so that it’s easier to identify each one of the nine lights when they are displayed in the card.

type: entities
entities:
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe1
    name: Lampe 1
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe2
    name: Lampe 2
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe3
    name: Lampe 3

... etc ...
22

yes, that is also a good idea!
Just put it in the code…

Nice options would be:
if a PIR Sensor detects a motion, turn on Lampe 2+3 to 100%
if Wolfram or Sabine is at home, turn all lamps to 70%

So many ideas… :slight_smile:

in the groups.yaml i made a new group:

partyraum-lampen:
  name: Partyraum Lampen
  entities:
    - light.partyraum_lampe1
    - light.partyraum_lampe2
    - light.partyraum_lampe3
    - light.partyraum_lampe4
    - light.partyraum_lampe5
    - light.partyraum_lampe6
    - light.partyraum_lampe7
    - light.partyraum_lampe8
    - light.partyraum_lampe9

How can i place a “main-switch” to turn all 9 Lamps on or off?

Use a Light Group instead of a Group and it will create a light entity that can control all nine lights (on/off, brightness, etc).

light:
  - platform: group
    name: Partyraum Lampen
    entities:
      - light.partyraum_lampe1
      - light.partyraum_lampe2
      - light.partyraum_lampe3
      - light.partyraum_lampe4
      - light.partyraum_lampe5
      - light.partyraum_lampe6
      - light.partyraum_lampe7
      - light.partyraum_lampe8
      - light.partyraum_lampe9

like this?
should it go into the coniguration.yaml or in groups.yaml?
EDIT: Ok, it must be in the configruation.yaml. Just found out…

I can use a new button to switch all on/off.
But can i put this button also into the slider-card?

EDIT: i found a way:

type: entities
entities:
  - light.partyraum_lampen                <--------------
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'    <---------------
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe1
    name: Lampe 1
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe2
    name: Lampe 2
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe3
    name: Lampe 3
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe4
    name: Lampe 4
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe5
    name: Lampe 5
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe6
    name: Lampe 6
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe7
    name: Lampe 7
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe8
    name: Lampe 8
  - type: 'custom:slider-entity-row'
    entity: light.partyraum_lampe9
    name: Lampe 9

now there is a switch above those 9 sliders, perfect!

another effekt i just watched:
if i turn Lamps manually to 0% and switch all off and on again, the lamps don’t have 0%, they have 5-10%!
Is there a option to save the last states and to give default values?
