### Creating groups in Phoscon
I create light groups in Phoscon. Each group defined in Phoscon will later show as a separate entity. This has a huge advantage over [Home Assistant Light Groups](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/light.group/) because if you send for example a command to turn off 5 lights in a light group that you configured in Home Assistant, it will one command for each bulb to the ConBee stick, which will in turn send 5 single commands to the ZigBee network. This can lead to delays and something called the "popcorn" effect, where lights turn on in random order. If you create a group in Phoscon, it will only send one command to the ZigBee network and all the lights will turn on/off at the same time. The disadvantage of Phoscon group is that you can't include lights/switches from other systems. You can still create a group in Home Assistant to do this and just include the group from Phoscon in there with the other devices that you want to control with this group.
