MAINT-10: maintenance start hour in local time, default 19:00
The start hour was compared with the UTC hour, so the shipped 10 started at 12:00 in a Belgian summer. It is now read in Home Assistant's time zone (fallback: the container's TZ, then UTC, one log line says which), and the default moves to 19. DST: a missing hour starts at the first hour after the jump; a repeated hour starts only in its first pass. Stored options are not rewritten: a saved 10 now means 10:00 local (DOCS, CHANGELOG).

**The start hour is local time.** The add-on reads Home Assistant's time zone
|
||||
(Settings → System → General) at startup. If Home Assistant does not answer,
|
||||
it uses the add-on's own time zone, and failing that UTC. The log says which
|
||||
one it used. On the day the clocks go forward, a start hour that does not exist
|
||||
starts at the first hour after the jump. On the day they go back, a repeated
|
||||
hour starts only once, in its first pass.
|
||||
|
||||
**Upgrading.** The hour used to be read as UTC, so the old default of 10
|
||||
started at 12:00 in a Belgian summer. The default is now 19 (19:00 local), but
|
||||
it only reaches installs whose saved settings lack the hour. Saving the
|
||||
settings stores every value, so most existing installs have 10 saved. They keep
|
||||
10, and it now means 10:00 local. The add-on never changes a saved value: set
|
||||
19 yourself for the evening start. *For installers:* DECISIONS/MAINT-10-local-start-hour.md.
