Pair bulbs together

@Ryan_Friedman

When you say “virtual switch” - how might one go about setting that up? I would like to do exactly that. Have a “grouped” bulb that’s basically called bedroom and controls two bulbs with one change. Otherwise, I have to set one then set the other to the exact same color/dim/ambiance, and it’s not easy to match.

It’s pretty easy. The link to the Instructions for setting up a virtual switch are in the wiki article.
