[EverLights](https://myeverlights.com/) are permanent Christmas lights installed on a home's gutters or flashing. This integration can change all LEDs in a zone to a single color or activate a pattern that was previously saved to the control box.
### {% linkable_title Configuration Details %}
To enable EverLights, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
light:
- platform: everlights
hosts:
- 192.168.1.123
- 192.168.1.124
```
{% configuration %}
hosts:
description: EverLights control box IP addresses.
required: true
type: list
{% endconfiguration %}
### {% linkable_title Effects %}
EverLights patterns saved to the control box can be activated using the effect parameter to the `light.turn_on` service. If an effect is specified, then the color and brightness are ignored.
### Limitations
The EverLights control box status indicates if a zone is active but does not indicate the current color or pattern. 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.
