  • docs: warn about is_sunny_sensor + raw lux OR-combination pitfall (#506)

    @jrhubott jrhubott committed Jun 2, 2026
  • docs(cloudy-days): add Variant C — direct binary sensor for cloud suppression Variant C wires a single inverted-polarity "Is Sunny" template binary sensor directly into the integration's Is Sunny binary sensor field, skipping the intermediate numeric Debounced Lux sensor used in Variant B. Same Schmitt trigger / hold-time semantics, one sensor instead of two. Comparison table updated. Refs #377.

  • docs: add hysteresis template and weather-entity caveat to cloudy-days Replace delay_on-only Variant B with a Schmitt-trigger hysteresis pattern (2500/3500 lx band, delay_on + delay_off) contributed by @MSL-DA. Add a caveat under 'Why it happens' explaining that cloud suppression inputs are OR-combined, so a 'cloudy' weather forecast can fire suppression even when lux is bright.
