Christmas is coming along and you decide to buy a remote switch to control the Christmas lights from Home Assistant. You can't claim to live in the house of the future if you're still manually turning on your Christmas lights!
We hook the switch up to Home Assistant and grab the entity ID0 from the developer tools: `switch.christmas_lights`. We will update the group to include the switch and will change our action. We are no longer able to call `light.turn_on` because we also want to turn on a switch. This is where `homeassistant.turn_on` comes to the rescue. This service is capable of turning any entity on.
