Can the light strips work with a dimmer switch? null

Short answer…no. But, you can use either/both Hue Labs and the new Effects, which are supported on these newer strips. I use these as a digital fireplace, and have a modified version of Hue Labs Fireplace script that I start FIRST - it gets the ‘flicker’ going, which is like a real-time dimmer effect. Then I go to the strip itself and start the Fireplace Effect. Yes, they have the same name, but are 2 different automations. So don’t hang them from a dimmer…use the software.

If you use the app you can dim the lights or use the Hue Dimmer Switch.
