QuestionMost dimmers do not dim real low. Does this one?

QuestionI bought a Phillips dimmer switch w/bulb but the instructions stink. I want to add a second switch to control lights in a staircase but it has to be wireless as there is no way to run wires. What do I need?
Asked 9 years ago by Arjay1.
- Answer If you have your Phillips Hub set up, the app on your phone and a powered bulb socket in the staircase your good to go. 1. Put the bulb in the light socket and turn the power on. 2. Pull the plastic strip from the battery area of the switch. 3. press the button on your Hue Hub to detect the new items. 4. Go into the App on your Phone, add a new room, and select the new items to go in that room. The switch will control all of the Hue bulbs in the same room group that it is in. Good luck.

QuestionIf i get Google Home does this product control the lights when commanded?
Asked 9 years ago by GoogleHome.
- Answer The Phillips Hue Wireless Dimmer Switch is an analog method to access the on, off, and dim features of the Hue Smart Light system. You can associate the Hue to a Google Home, but this switch is a venue in which to control your lights outside of the app or Home.

QuestionIs there a switch product that can be control by the app to turn off non WI-FI lights? I have a basement with flourecent bulbs that always get left on. I would like to see on the app if the light has been left on and turn it off remotely.
Asked 5 years ago by Spjonestn.
- Answer If the bulbs are in lamps, you can use the we-mo outlet adapter to turn the lamps on and off with the app or with the switch. If they are in the ceiling, I can’t think of one right now.
