Ac vent redirector2/19/2024 ![]() The only downside thus far is that the hue bulbs aren't as bright as what I used to have in there (2x 100w bulbs, although we rarely used the lamps on full brightness). In their effort to make things "Just Work" they've made it difficult for anyone wanting to do anything out of the ordinary. I have my own mail domain so it's easy for me to make a one-off mail address dedicated to a hue account and then share that with my wife, but don't want to screw with that if it's not necessary. The hue app is easy enough to deal with, but I can see they have a web system and it's very unclear if it will allow two different Hue accounts to talk to the same controller / share the same settings. Now I have to figure out the best way to get both my phone and my wife's talking to the whole thing. I then added one of their awesome click switches next to our other light switch, and might add a second switch if we find we want one elsewhere. In the side lamps I used hue lux bulbs (single-temperature white only, but brighter than a normal hue, still dimmable). ![]() I love that my wife doesn't even bat an eye when I tell her I just bought ~$380 worth of "light bulbs." We have two identical lamps, each takes two bulbs in the top into which I've put a pair of hues. The little side lamp coming off has its own knob that is just a toggle. They are actually neither of the above, they're two-way switches, so I believe there is a resistor or something in there to cut the bulb brightness down.
