Phillips Hue 10W Questions

[Alza-Aaron]

Just wondering, would a single Phillips Hue Color 10W light bulb be enough to light up a 3 x 3 x 3m Room? If not are there any other better multicoloured lights that i could buy? 

Also do i NEED the bridge to control the light using my phone?

Im just trying to get some better lighting in my gaming room...

3m height, wow.

 

I don't know how many lumens it produces, but I assume 600+, then sure it would be enough depending on how much light you ant in the space. It still won't be "bright"

 

What is you current lighting?

It is just a common 24W phillips tornado

You're current tornado light is 1460lm and the hue color is 806lm, so it will be less bright.

You do need the bridge to control the hue light, without it you can it only turn on and off with the normal light switch.

The phone app connects to the bridge by wifi and the bridge connects to the lamp by radio signals (zigbee).

If you go for the hue, look for a starters package, it will have all you need and is mostly cheaper.

 

One warning, if you start with hue, you want more

I can support this sentiment with 54 hue devices
