I have a lot of Philips Hue GU 10 lights. Is there a way to **Fade In / Out** these lights by timer ? ---

Often the flowcard that you use for setting the dim level has an additional ‘duration’ option that you can enable. I assume this is also the case for Philips Hue lights. In Advanced Flow, you right click on the flowcard. You’ll see an option to add a duration. ![Dim Duration 1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/2/72cd45ea7b7407400da5bce6653d026f5bd8795b.png) As an example, a duration of 5 seconds: ![Dim Duration 2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/6/a659e35b902d43516a9b7c5da0a8b52097530166.png) The same option is available in Standard Flow. ---
