💡 Light Pairing Integration

Light Pairing is a custom Home Assistant integration that allows you to combine a physical light and a smart light, creating a new virtual entity that intelligently manages both lights. This entire integration was developed with the assistance of artificial intelligence.

📋 Description

This integration allows you to create light pairs consisting of:

1. Physical Light: A physical switch or light that controls the light fixture (with on/off functionality).
2. Smart Light: A smart light entity with on/off, brightness, and color control.

🔧 How It Works

The virtual light entity acts as a unified interface to control both the physical and smart lights seamlessly, providing the following behavior:

• Turn On (ON):

  • Turns on the physical light if it is off.
  • If the physical light is already on, it turns on the smart light.

• Turn Off (OFF):

  • Turns off the smart light but leaves the physical light on (unless configured otherwise).

• Brightness Adjustment:

  • If the physical light is off, it turns on the physical light first and then adjusts the brightness of the smart light once it becomes available.

• Color Change:

  • If the physical light is off, it turns it on and then adjusts the color of the smart light once it becomes available.

🔧 Configuration Parameters

When setting up the integration, you can configure the following options:

• Brightness on Switch On: Specify the brightness percentage (0-100%) that should be applied to the smart light when the physical light is turned on.

• Turn Off Physical Light: Choose whether to turn off the physical light when the virtual entity is turned off.

🚀 Installation & Setup

1. Add the Integration: Use the button below to add the Light Pairing integration directly to your Home Assistant instance.

   

2. Configure the Light Pair:

   • Select a physical light (switch or light entity).
   • Select a smart light (light entity).
   • Choose a name for the new virtual light.
   • Set the brightness percentage for when the physical switch is turned on.
   • Choose if the physical light should turn off when the virtual light is turned off.

🧠 AI-Powered Development

This integration was fully developed using artificial intelligence to ensure a smooth and efficient workflow. From concept to implementation, the AI provided structured code, intelligent configuration flows, and seamless user experience.
