Lights
This integration adds the Key Light device as a light in Home Assistant, and allows you to control the color temperature, brightness, and its on/off state.
When using the Elgato Light Strip, color support is automatically detected and enabled in Home Assistant.
Other entities
Besides the above mentioned light entity, this integration also provides other secondary entities that can be useful for monitoring and controlling your Elgato light.
Sensors
If you have a Key Light Mini, Home Assistant will provide an additional sensor that indicates the level of your battery in percent (%).
Switches
If you have a Key Light Mini, Home Assistant will provide an additional switch that allows the control of the "Studio mode" of your light. When studio mode is enabled, your battery will not be used and bypassed.
Services
Service elgato.identify
The identify service shortly blinks the Elgato light. Originally meant as a way to identify which light you are talking to; it can also be used as a service to create a visual notification.
This service also works when the light is turned off and will turn off the light after the identification sequence has been completed.
