Brightness to 100% in sleep mode

[ansris]

as the title, in sleep mode my lamps turn into 100% brightness... but the circadian_lighting attribute is right at 1% as i set in the configuration... why lamps will not take the 1%? in non sleep mode it works perfectly...

I don't know. Can you provide some relevant logs? There's some guidance here: https://github.com/claytonjn/hass-circadian_lighting/wiki/Debugging

Not the OP but I too have run into a similar issue.

I’ve set up a toggle button called input_boolean.sleep_mode and linked that as the sleep_entity

However when toggling the button, it makes my lights go to 100% brightness. Here are some logs that looked relevant?

My config looks like this:

# Circadian lighting
circadian_lighting:
  min_colortemp: 2700
  max_colortemp: 6500

switch:
  - platform: circadian_lighting
    name: "Adaptive Lighting"
    lights_ct:
      - light.nanoleaf_a19_4uk3
      - light.nanoleaf_a19_a6yj
      - light.nanoleaf_a19_8txh
    min_brightness: 1
    max_brightness: 100
    sleep_entity: input_boolean.sleep_mode
    sleep_state: "on"
    sleep_colortemp: 2700
    sleep_brightness: 1

Edit: It seems like it errors when the sleep_brightness is set to 1. When I set it to something like 5, then it behaves as expected.

Edit 2: Ok so it looks like the logs that I posted are a red herring and have nothing to do with this issue. However, another observation I've made (and it's not specifically for sleep mode) is that the issue is the brightness setting. More specifically, for whatever reason the actual brightness of the physical lights are brightness setting - 1 according to the lights e.g. if the reported brightness level is 100 in the circadian_lighting switch attribute, the light reports 99. vs

so I'm guessing that when the brightness is set to 1 the actual brightness becomes 0 and that's why it freaks out and goes to 100% brightness
