# Status on a visible RGB light, which stays a normal light otherwise:
#   network down         red, slow blink
#   no API client (HA)   orange, slow blink
#   component error      purple, steady
#   OTA                  blue, fast blink; green when done, 3 red blinks on error
#   back to normal       green for 1 s, then the light goes back to how it was
