Keeping Home Assistant Lights in Sync: A Better Toggle Solution
If you’ve ever tried to toggle multiple lights in Home Assistant with a single button, you’ve probably run into the annoying “out of sync” problem. You press the button, expecting all lights to turn on together, but instead one turns off whilst another turns on because they were already in different states. Frustrating, right?
The Problem with Toggle
The issue is simple: the toggle command just flips each light’s current state. If Light A is on and Light B is off, toggling both will leave Light A off and Light B on. They’re still out of sync!
