OK. I just completed a fairly significant rework to how sun events are scheduled. I’m now doing this once a day at 12:13 local time rather that twice a day at sunset and sunrise. Hopefully this will resolve the issues I had been seeing. The code behind the GitHub link earlier in this thread is updated. I will report back in a few days after I have been able to verify that it is working.
UPDATE 1/16/15: So far so good, except the start routine didn’t complete last night so the lights stayed at 30% until the first motion event. I had changed the runIn to a runOnce to resolve this but it didn’t work. Maybe a peak-time traffic issue. It did work several times during my testing. I am considering adding an arbitrary offset to move the event just slightly off peak when the user does no…
Look towards the end of the thread to find the latest posted code. I haven’t yet posted the version running without issue at my house but will soon. Stay tuned.
