  name: Motion-activated Light with illuminance, nightmode and dimmable
  description: Turn on a light when motion is detected and illuminance is below a
    set Lux level. The light will dim before it is turned off to signal that it has
    not detected motion in quite a while. There is also two timers, on for daytime
    and one for nighttime.

I miss 2 things, to be able to set 2 different brightness values for when to turn the light on (one value daytime and another for night time). Currently my Hue Buld starts with the brightness value that were the last when turned off. With this script after the first run the upcoming times the light turns on it get the most dimmed value as turn on value for brightness and this results in a very low dimmed light when turned on de following motion detections.... With the start brightness parameters the light would also increase the brightness with a new motion detection when the light have started to dim based on no motion.

So for me I use the excellent Adaptive lightning integration, so that is not really an issue for me. Feel free to just extend my code and add with those ideas you have. But for me, they do not apply :)

Would it be possile to use the illuminance from my Xiaomi sensor with this bleuprint? Thats will make it perfect

The latet version is almost perfect for me, if you can add the option to change the brightness during night time it will be perfect.

@f35ta have you edited it to work with brightness?

So the light goes on and lux_entity level rises cause it's bright now. If the motion triggers again the condition evaluates to false and the delay gets not refreshed. Wonder if it works for you?

• delay: ' {% if today_at(states(local_night_end)) < now() or now() < today_at(states(local_night_start)) %}

now() and now()
