   Can't figure out what brightness to set bathroom globe. Its dark in the day but blindingly light at night. Sometimes exhaust fan is necessary but they are on same switch in a rental

   You can get bulbs with memory that you could invert the lighting and the exhaust and then add a lamp - or maybe a permanent nightlight

   But what about a nonsmart bulb with a little chip with different light settings / dimmer? So you flick off and on to toggle between modes, one for day and one for night.

     AFAIK IoT can't solve this problem unless I can access the power plug for the exhaust in the crawlspace and it would take two devices which seems costly. Also moving out at some point makes me think this is unwise.

     @freedomtux Fans don't usually have much room to be able to solve this without a single device, unfortunately.
