Expensive But Worth It
|Posted .I have been considering some form of 'smart' lighting for a while. Phillips Hue is the top tier, but I spent time investigating cheaper alternatives before deciding to take the plunge - all in with the Hue. It has been well worth it! It took a bit to figure out the bulb naming schemes, but once I had the Bridge installed and the bulbs named, connection with my Google Home was a breeze, and now the lights are integrated with my daily routines. Wowing friends with fun colors is always a plus. Middle of the night bathroom visits no longer involve getting blinded. I wake up more naturally with the "sunrise" routine - versus a jarring alarm. I've barely scratched the surface as to all the things these lights can do, and am looking forward to seeing what else they have in store. I am sold, and I highly recommend them!

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Easy to set up and schedule. Made the purchase before a family vacation and set a lighting schedule to simulate that someone was home. Worked like a charm.... The colors and controls are amazing. I purchased additional color bulbs, outdoor floodlights (white) and a discover color changing floodlight. Highly recommend, worth the money!

Officially a fan
|Posted .So far I love these bulbs. Setup was easy and other people are crazy because the bulbs are bright enough to equate to a standard LED bulb. If they last as long as they claim, definitely worth the cost.

Awesome lights
|Posted .Bright, colorful, and so many custom options just from downloading different apps. I will be getting more in the future!! I actually put this in for my can lights. Not the flood bulbs like you’re supposed to, but it works and these have more lumens anyway...and it’s cheaper. Definitely worth the money. Photo is just with the lights in plain white and the light strip behind the tv

Awesome , makes my living room feel like a Theatre
|Posted .I highly recommend these lights for anybody who wants to set up a mood to their room, meaning if you're watching a movie you might want to do the dark red color , or if you're just hanging out talking to your spouse or whatever you might want to just put like a light blue. I really love these lights. I'm glad I made the purchase.

Q: QuestionDo I need to use all 4 bulbs or can I use just one? My daughter's room only has 1 socket but she really wants this item. Thanks
Asked by ynoT513.
- A:Answer You can just use one bulb in her room. You can connect just that bulb, however the one hub would control any of the other bulbs anywhere on your network if you wanted add them in the future. I have 5 color and 6 whites throughout my house. You can can control them individually or in groups.

Q: QuestionCan I still use a light switch to turn these lights on/off or do I have to use the voice control or app to turn them on/off?
Asked by calman848.
- A:Answer Technically yes, however very time you use the switch to turn them off they lose connection to the bridge and reset. Think of it like an alarm clock, you can turn off the alarm with the designated button or by unplugging the whole clock - you would never unplug the whole clock though because then you would have to reset the time each time.
Answered by OnlyOneAbs
Q: QuestionShould multiple bridges be used since each 4-pack comes with one, or are you better to use just 1 bridge, even if you are connecting multiple rooms and for arguments sake, hooking up 20+ bulbs in the house?
Asked by Livie.
- A:Answer you just need one hue bridge per house since you connect it to your router. I bought two kits since it was cheaper and gave one bridge and bulb as a gift and kept the rest.
Answered by Mimi
Q: QuestionAre these bulbs safe to use as lightbulbs that are currently on a dimmer switch? As in, my living room lights are dimmable can I use these bulbs?
Asked by Starlight.
- A:Answer Hi Starlight. Per the manual, it's not suggested to use the dimmer switch with these bulbs. We have ours on a dimmer switch, but we keep the dimmer on high. The woman once lowered the brightness with the switch and lights began to flicker.
Answered by ItsJustMe
Q: QuestionI got the Echo Plus because it has a Hue-compatible hub built-in. Amaz. said it works ALL Philips Hue bulbs. However the colored bulbs in this kit with hub WON'T work with JUST the Echo Plus. Why?! I don't want to use the bridge nor should have to. :(
Asked by ItsJustMe.
- A:Answer You might try installing with the hue bridge, let the bulbs download the lastest software/firmware updates, then try installing with the built-in Echo plus bridge.
Answered by Agent99
Q: QuestionAre the light bulbs included in this kit full color spectrum?
Asked by DavidC.
- A:Answer Yes the 4 light bulbs that are included are able to change the full array of colors. When you first put the bulbs in they are white. However after setup is done you can set them each to whatever color you choose in the app.
Answered by Minster

Answered by Joey
Q: QuestionWonder if I can manage the lights by turning them on or off while Im Away from home from my phone?
Asked by Ax.
- A:Answer Once the hub is connected to the internet and you link it to the philips hue website you can access the lights via the cloud feature which lets you control the hub remotely as long as it’s connected to the internet via your home network
