Did you know the smart features of Philips Hue smart bulbs only work with a paddle switch if it is in the ON position? If a paddle switch is unknowingly bumped, accidentally turned off or Wi-Fi connection is lost, the Philips Hue smart bulb will no longer operate from its control source (wireless app, remote, or voice). Lutron’s Aurora smart bulb dimmer Wallplate Bracket for Paddle Switches eliminates this issue. When used with the Aurora smart bulb dimmer, Philips Hue smart bulbs will stay in “ready mode” for consistent smart control. Setting up the Wallplate Bracket for Paddle Switches for use with Aurora is a quick, hassle-free process. Simply remove your existing paddle switch from the wall, cap the wires in the backbox, and screw the bracket into the backbox in place of the switch – no rewiring, repositioning, or extra trips to the store to get a new wallplate will be necessary. Aurora will connect directly to the Philips Hue smart bulbs – no wiring required.
