   These options are superceded by the fact that the light component has a fully customized

+### Light modes
+
+The lamp supports multiple light modes. These are:
+
+* **RGB light** (input: RGB + brightness)
+* **White light** (input: Color Temperature + brightness)
+* **Night light** (input: either RGB or Color Temperature + brightness at 1%)
+
+In the original firmware + Yeelight Home Assistant integration, the night light feature is
+implemented through a switch component. The switch can be turned on to activate the night
+light mode. In this ESPHome firmware, setting the brightness to its lowest value triggers
+the night light mode. This makes things a lot easier to control.
+
+It is possible to control the night light mode separately. An example of this can be
+found in the [example.yaml](example.yaml), in which holding the power button is bound
+to activating the night light.
