Hue is awesome!

The Hue offers 3 light bulbs with a bridge in a package.
There are enhancements - The Living Colors Bloom, a purist-looking floral lamp that really needs to be hidden not behind furniture or in niches, because it optically presents itself very well.
Well done to the design company of Phillips. This is almost a work of art, without being intrusive, it adapts to their environment.
Finally, the system can be supplemented by LightStrips. A strip has a
Length of about 2 meters and can z. B. on or under furniture easily be fixed by back adhesive tape.

The lighting system offers brilliant LED light which a seemingly endless
Provides possibility of color design.

The packaging is really very beautiful and high quality as it is already promising the content.
Here children play have fun first, because there is a turntable that can change the color of the lamp pictured.
In the Philips Hue Connected Bulb Starter Pack, the central control unit Hue Bridge, three LED bulbs is (compatible with any version of the type or E27) and a LAN cable to connect the Hue-Bridge to the router.
Now it may thus go. Screw the lamp into the sockets that connect Hue-Bridge to the router on the PC and power. Sure, the Bloom and the LightStrip find a place.
Download in the AppStore the Phillips Hue app and the fun of light can begin.
It all works smoothly and without hesitation.

It is really sensational thing you can do with it now. The app provides default scenarios. They can transform a room into an oasis where you can relax and unwind, in a cheerful ring, the child's birthday mood raises or dive into a disreputable-looking atmosphere in which really just the Marilyn Monroe lacks that equating expected. But it is also simply in white. From the cool blue white to yellow to white tone. So even grandma feels comfortable.
The scene Apps show quickly, which light games are possible and when their own experimentation, there is much Ah and Oh. But No, this is not so

The light strips I installed on a mantelpiece in the kitchen, 2 lamps found in the living room, the Bloom I asked the office.
Not a good idea. One quickly realizes that the system is aimed at a coordinated cooperation of all components. And that's what is best in a single room. Clicking on a scene, the colors of the lights change.
Lighting in which the lamps are screwed, have so often a separate switch. If you press the, the light goes to a normal Weißtonlevel. The Bloom and Lighstrip are separate light sources and do not have such a switch. Thus, they have to be controlled so exclusively through the App. In Phillips should think.
In fact, I believe that the audience is well thought out. For the Hue system must have an interest in technology, a smartphone or a tablet. And the controller should be in the hands of one individual. Sure, you can agree on much. But the light will stop the fun.
So for me the Hue best fits into the living room of a self-determined people.
He can now conjure up with the light and adapt to his mood and the circumstances according to his needs. For Grandma is too much gimmick and Seniorenhandy does not match the fun.

Finally. The sophisticated lighting system can be controlled remotely used as anti-theft protection, because light dissuasive always feigns presence. It is also wonderful to be late at night or received in the darker season, with light in his apartment. The whole product is technically and visually extremely high-quality and commercially going rate has his legal skill.
Except for the lack of separate on-off switch at the Bloom and the LightStrip I'm thrilled.
