Automatic smart light brightness and color based on the sun

I use Home Assistant to set my smart light brightness and colour temperature to different values based on the time of day and position of the sun. This (apparently) helps keep your lights in line with your circadian rhythms for better sleep and mental alertness. I use a combination of template sensors, automations and the circadian lighting HACS plugin to achieve this.

There is an Adaptive Lighting Integration that works very well. Easy to set up.

@theattorney6072 9 месяцев назад

Just tried the adaptive lighting integration, and the Issue is that the previous setting is loaded first, so at night it is not usable for me, you are first blinded, then the light sets to lower brightness.

@DennisSchmitz 2 месяца назад

@@theattorney6072 fixed in a recent version. It just keeps adapting, even if the lights are off (not via hardware switch of course).

Haven't looked the video yet but I was looking for this for a long time ! Thank you !

@andymok7945 Год назад

Great ideas. I have been using HA for a few years now and template is on the learning list for me. Your example for lighting was a really good example and will bump up the ranking to learn about templates higher on the list.

@suzithewitch Год назад

I'm using SmartThings for now, but I'm supposed to get my Home Assistant Yellow in January. I'm saving many of your videos for use for then, but what I love is when I can use the same ideas in SmartThings, now. For example, your light notification of your laundry status really helped me make mine work, and while I can't use HACS, I can use color templates based on the time of day and set them up for my system to use. Thank you!

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

I'm really glad that they're helpful!

Any reason you are not using the "Adaptive Lighting" integration? Does exactly what you are trying to do, just a lot more user friendly to setup

@Sparky_D Год назад

Exactly what I was thinking within seconds of starting this video. Adaptive Lighting was a fork of Circadian Lighting, with a HEAP of improvements.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Nope - I'd never heard of it until now 😂. Guess I should take a look at it!

@@HomeAutomationGuy it’s the updated version of circadian lighting.

@AlonsoVPR Год назад

@igiannakas Год назад

Same here. Was wondering why the adaptive lighting integration was not used, as it’s much easier to setup and works actually quite a bit better than the above.

@SergioBlackDolphin 2 месяца назад

What a great automation. I added it to my home and it makes everything so much easier. It works even with the porch light and across our home we don’t have to worry about choosing the right combination. Each time. 😊

@wimderaat2993 Год назад

Very interesting video. I already liked you automatic lighting before this, but this is even better. Winter in the Netherlands can be pretty dark too. I have to change some things around here. Perfect excuse to play with home automation.

@netblue Год назад

As usual a another great video we can inspire from. I am not as skilled with coding so I did this the long way around by creating a "Daytime" toggle helper that flips based on sunset / sunrise . Will definitely look into the circadian integration, though I try to stay away from cluttering the configuration.yaml file as it is terrible to read if long.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Thanks for sharing!

@EsotericArctos Год назад

The template sensor is a great idea, but Home Assistant can also do a lot of this with Action Condtions in the Automation instead of needing to create additional sensors. I stopped using set times for a lot of my light automations. Instead I started using the sun elevation. Not perfect still, but it eliminated some of the restrictions of time based automations. One of the great things about Home Assistant. There are many different ways to do the same thing. It can be complex, or simple :).

@kmaid Год назад

I think using a template sensor is better programming practice. It allows you to reuse these values in different automations so there is only one place to tweak. It also separates concerns

@cyberdave17 Год назад

I like your automation for hall lighting, I do similar with the kitchen and counter lights, as over night or late evening I'm normally just putting the kettle on or need a glass of water so the counter light strips are ideal

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

After a few days you stop noticing it, which means it's a perfect automation 😊

@cyberdave17 Год назад

@@HomeAutomationGuy it will be after my fp1 arrives to stop lights turning off when standing still by the oven cooking. Didn't want to extend the cool down to 10 mins and couldn't figure out code to start the cooldown at 1 min, and increase it the longer someone is in the room upto a limit.

@user-gr5ps6hq2z 5 дней назад

Tonight is my first night trying sunset lights to help my sleep.

@TheMoonSeesMe Год назад

That's sweet. The other thing that I have done is to have different lighting based on whether my night time alarm [external doors are opened] is on or off. If it's on then the lighting is really subdued because everyone is [or should be] asleep. And if the night time alarm isn't on then the lighting is a bit brighter because people are probably still up.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Clever idea! I love it

@Yama_1291 Год назад

You could also do this with scenes and a time of day sensor.

For years I used 222 temp everywhere. Boy I was shocked what a difference 300 temp does in the morning on a room with closed curtains. Thanks 😊

@chazM6116 Год назад

light is measured in Kelvin, Colour temperature generally ranges from 2700-3300K (warm) to 3300-5300 (cool) - and 6500K is daylight.

@man4evil Год назад

@@chazM6116 so? you probably can set all lightbulbs to same calvin, will they glow the same color for different vendors? I doubt that. I have 3 sets of different models of Xiaomi e27 lightbulbs in chandeliers and its colors is different. need to replace bunch of inconsistent lights :(

@hmonkey1 Год назад

I have something similar but I set the scene to all the lights on the sun height. That way it works all year round. Time isn't a reliable way to do it in my finding. I do this by having a template that tracks what scene the lights should follow. This also means I can get the scene to change on all the lights when the template changes not just when the light is turned on.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Clever idea! Thanks for sharing!

@fearthesmeag 7 месяцев назад

Alan, awesome video. Im currently using Adaptive Lighting, which looks very similar to circadian lighting. However, can I use an automation (sensor) with the AL integration? Otherwise AL keeps the lights On.

@DennisSchmitz 2 месяца назад

Works fine here with automations using either light or motion/presence sensors. Just make sure to use the Adaptive Lighting 'apply' service to turn on the lights while applying the right color at the same time. With the regular light or device service lights often forgot to change to the right color.

@deansproductions Год назад

Surely the times should be based off the sunrise/sunset .. what happens in winter etc?

@milicsantiago Год назад

Great stuff. Are you using docket version?

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Yes I am

@iAmTheSquidThing Год назад

Apparently people also prefer warmer lighting when the weather is colder, and colder lighting when the weather is warmer. So that might be something interesting to add.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

I think I prefer that too, but only just realised 🤣 Thanks for the suggestion

@GagliardiPhotography Год назад

Another great video! Just a question: I need multiple IFs in my case, as I need different light conditions during the day. I tried to define a new sensor like this, but I got a syntax error, what is the right syntax? light_color: friendly_name: 'Light Color' value_template: > {% if (now().hour >= 23) or (now().hour < 6) %} red {% elseif (now().hour >= 6) and (now().hour < 10) %} yellow {% elseif (now().hour >= 10) and (now().hour < 15) %} green {% elseif (now().hour >= 15) and (now().hour < 20) %} blue {% else %} orange {% endif %}

@eugsmiley Год назад

Isn't it 'elif' not 'elseif'?

@GagliardiPhotography Год назад

@@eugsmiley Yes, it is! Thanks!

@chrismills5470 Год назад

If I start using the circadian lighting plug in do i still need the colour temp sensor or am I correct in thinking this would remove the need for it?

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

The circadian plugin should do it. I've recently been using a new integration called Adaptive Lighting, which seems more powerful and supported. I'd suggest checking that out instead!

@cyberdave17 Год назад

Anyone know how to tweak Adaptive Lighting so that it instantly changes to the right colour temperature after switching the bulb on? Mine normally changes around 20s later which can be a bit jarring if you last had the light on in the day, then switch on at night.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

There's an "initial transition" setting when you press configure that is supposed to take care of that

@EvolverDX Год назад

Thought you were using Home Assistant as a docker container. How did you integrate HACS in your container?

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

The installation method is pretty similar for HA OS and container.

@EvolverDX Год назад

@@HomeAutomationGuy you are right. I just integrated HACS in my container a few days ago and it works like a charm.

@luisinigo5572 Год назад

@@HomeAutomationGuy Easy peasy! Elevation is how high from horizon is the sun, in degrees. Minor than 0° is below horizon, 90° is over our heads. Azimuth is the horizontal position. 0° is north, 90° is east, etc. :-)

@jfkgodk Год назад

Is there a way to make this work in Sweden? I mean, the sun is up all night in the summer. We don't want bright light indoors in the middle of the night. In the winter it is the opposite, the sun isn't up much. We need bright light then.

@wimderaat2993 Год назад

Very interesting problem indeed. The sun entity has some State Attributes like elevation angle and if the sun is rising or not. Have you ever looked at that ? Of course this can also be combined with the time and light sensors. I live in the Netherlands and I also want my lighting to change with the seasons. It is not as extreme as is Sweden, but is still pretty dark in winter over here. So I also want very bright light in the morning and the afternoon in winter to mimic the sun.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

There are a lot of variables to play with including offsets and min/max brightness. But in these cases I'd probably go manual with the template sensors and pick what works best for you, your location and your routine

@iAmTheSquidThing Год назад

I guess just use the settings for somewhere on the same longitude but nearer the equator. Like Poland or Croatia.

@davidc4162 Год назад

I'm only halfway in buuut this really seems like a reinvention of Adaptive Lighting... with the difference that this is time-based rather than position of the sun.

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

Yep, I think Adaptive Lighting is the newer version of this.

@axel9546 Год назад

What about PWM flickering?

@HomeAutomationGuy Год назад

I'm not sure what that is, but I've not noticed any flickering with my Hue lights
