“I understand you need the Philips Hub to use with the Hue motion sensor. But do you also need to purchase special Philips bulbs for the light fixtures?”

• That depends on what setup you want to have. You can use this sensor to trigger another smart device (bulb, outlet, switch, for example) the other device does not have to be HUE but you will need another app or hub if it is not hue.

• If you have the Phillips Hub it would make sense to use Hue bulbs for the most flexibility but there are other bulbs that can be used as well depending on what you need them to do.

• The Philips Hue bridge uses the Zigbee Light Link standard, which makes it, according to Philips, compatible to all such light bulbs and devices. Of course all Philips lights should be compatible – but there are some interesting alternatives on the market!
