Toggle Kasa lights with Button widget
How this automation works
Automate your home lighting by turning on Kasa or Lutron lights when outdoor brightness gets low. This Applet runs whenever your Tempest Weather System detects that the light level falls below your chosen threshold and adjusts connected smart lights accordingly. Ideal for maintaining comfort and visibility as daylight fades or during cloudy conditions.
