Turn off WCOs and Battery Cam Pros when charging

[nixhome2020]

Automation to power off battery camera when they are being charged.

Both WCOs and Battery Cam Pros, individually or an existing group of cameras.

When I bring in my eight WCOs, connect them to power at my desk, I have to turn them off to stop them from alerting every time they see a shadow in my office (I turn them to the wall or down on the desk, and they still alert)

I’ve setup a Shortcut to turn all eight WCOs or the four BCPs off or on manually, but I don’t always bring all eight WCOs and/or BCP’s in at the same time to charge.

@nixhome2020,

Going out on a limb here.

I understand what your requesting. Would be a nice feature if consideration is given to those using solar panels

Are your battery cams showing as favorites (non-grouped). If so are you seeing the power button? See screen shot below.

If I were to mimic what you are doing I could power off the driveway camera, bring it in to charge. I would see the following:

In your case, if the cams are marked, I would think this would take seconds to accomplish.

I voted for your idea.
