QuestionWould these work as a lamp alternate for a living room? Either facing out or against a wall?
Asked 7 years ago by Pickles18.
- Answer I don't think you'll like the brightness. They get bright, but reflecting off walls makes the light dull or dim. Ok for ambience but that's it really.

QuestionMultiple questions; Why do I need to have a hub? These lights won't work if I do not have one? Please explain fully. Are the lights in this replaceable or if they go out are they completely done? Thanks.
Asked 5 years ago by Destiny.
- Answer I got them out of the box and tried to use the Bluetooth app.... they are not bluetooth so I had to get the hue bridge. Then it finally worked. I honestly think buying the bridge was worth it. I love these and if I want more I can just connect them to the bridge. (I have no hue light bulbs) I say they shouldn't go out (no bulbs added in box) Just don't drop them or get them wet.

QuestionCan 4 of these lights placed against the wall be enough to light a entire living room ?
Asked 7 years ago by Phillesia4290.
- Answer For the average sized living room I would say no. For a small bedroom, possibly. My medium sized living room, I have 3 play bars and 4 regular bulbs. These are better suited for accent lighting in a room.

QuestionAny issues plugging this into a switched outlet on my Denon amp so lights come on with the TV? I realize the app/bridge won't work if lights don't have power.
Asked 2 years ago by Sinjin.
- Answer Should be okay. If youre going to do that, make sure you go into your bulb settings and change the "behavior when power is reconnected" or whatever. You can have it go back to its previous state, stay off, or set to a particular color. I would probably say set to previous state.

QuestionWould these work if placed on your mantel to uplight an 8' tall picture above the mantel? We have a plug-in in the center of the mantel shelf.
Asked 3 years ago by shopchops.
- Answer Yes. It had a mounting stand but you need to drill to wood and lay it on an angle because the cable plugs directly behind it. Laying it down would bend the cable.

QuestionIs it really bright? ?
Asked 4 years ago by Nickname.
- Answer I would say “normal” I didn’t measure it, but paired with my 2 hue bulbs in a normal lamp I would say it is the same, but wider since it does not have a shade of course. The color is great, but when I really need to light up the room they do great! Hard to get a light behind the TV so I never had one, and it really helps me.
