Feature description
Hello, I use the schedulers to set recurring operating windows but I regularly need to turn something on for a few minutes or a few hours without having to configure a new window.
Is it possible to have such a feature?

To do this you can create a scene, detect that your lamp/plug is on and add a Wait action then a Turn Off action for your lamp or plug.

I confirm that I did the same thing in some scenes.

Yep, I also use this kind of setup a lot …
It works very well, especially for my toaster :wink:
