Circadian Lighting Gradients in Home Assistant

Logosofia no Dia a Dia · May 2, 2026 · 33m

Daniel and Hannah wanted circadian lighting that shifts color temperature and brightness gradually throughout the day — but their rigid red-light-only nighttime mode was too inflexible. This episode explores how to build a smooth gradient using Home Assistant's Adaptive Lighting integration, why melanopic lux matters more than simple "warm light," and how to handle emergency overrides like red alerts without breaking the system. We cover profile design, latitude-dependent sunset timing, and the cleanest automation architecture for priority overrides. Episode 2600 — myweirdprompts.com/n/2600…
