Automatically turn your lights on at sunset
How this automation works
Automatically switch off your smart lights when it gets bright outside. This runs when your Tempest Weather System detects brightness rising above the selected level, triggering Philips Hue and Govee lights to turn off. Ideal for saving energy and keeping your lighting natural during daylight hours.
