Outdoor Light
An outdoor smart light is a weather-rated fixture, spot, or strip for gardens, paths, and facades. It adds dimming, color, and schedules to exterior lighting, often tied to sunset and presence.
An outdoor light is a weather-sealed luminaire - a path light, spotlight, wall pack, string light, or outdoor strip - built to take rain and temperature swings while staying under Home Assistant control.
How Selora AI uses outdoor lights
- Sunset and schedule automation that lights facades, paths, and gardens at dusk and off at a set time.
- Security lighting that brightens on motion or alarm events to deter and reveal.
- Seasonal and scene control of color and brightness for entertaining or holidays.
Why outdoor is its own category
Exterior lighting has different placement, IP rating, and automation needs than indoor lighting, so it is worth browsing on its own. It still fills the generic light role for recipes that need “a light.” See [[light-bulb]], [[light-strip]], and [[light-fixture]].
