The color and effect in the state attributes are based on the last execution of `light.turn_on`. If the control box scheduler or another app makes a change, then the state attributes are not updated. diff --git a/source/images/supported_brands/everlights.png b/source/images/supported_brands/everlights.png new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..ed37a52eeb6 Binary files /dev/null and b/source/images/supported_brands/everlights.png differ
