Do any of you have a good plan for dealing with Christmas lights and PH? I have some
wall modules that I box up each year and are a part of several macros and link
groups.

The way I have been doing it that each year when I box everything up, I disable them
in PH on the device tab. And then when I get everything out, I enable them. The
problem with this approach is that the switches are still a part of the groups and
other links, which causes comms errors. I guess I could ignore them, but if I ever
need to rebuild something that was linked, it always seems to not work quite right.

Anyway, I was wondering if any of you have a good plan for dealing with HA/PH and
Christmas lights.
