Nest cam with floodlight brightness

Mario714 — Sat, 09 Jul 2022 09:08:20 GMT

If I set my nest cam with floodlight brightness to 25% one night, and have a routine for sunset to sunrise. Will the floodlight brightness stay at the same level when the routine turns on the light the next night?

Hi Mario714,

I don't own the floodlight camera myself so I don't know if the brightness will change but if you are using a routine you could add an action that will adjust the brightness within the routine.

I tried looking for that option, but the only action I see is to turn light on or off, no brightness

Hi @Mario714 , I noticed in general for the lights, that if you adjust the brightness, it keeps the same settings and doesn't automatically resets.

So you should be ok, and keep the 25% the next night.

Thanks, yes I can confirm that your right, next night stayed at 25%, actually brought it down to 1%, light is really bright. At 100% I was lighting up the while street, lol
