    I just bought my first set of Philips Hue series (a Starter kit, Lightstrips and more light bulbs). But I still drool for these Play Bars. The light power is amazing, and they look... modern. They'd be fantastic on a PC-table. Too bad I blew already so much money on my set-up and these alone cost 129€/$ a pair. But I'll get them, some day I will... lol.

    like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

    Hmmm, I've been debating whether to get these or a light strip to go behind my TV. I know you mentioned earlier in the video that the strips fit better behind the TV but you also mentioned how these work much better than a light strip and has more dimensions to work with than a light strip and you don't have sticky marks on the back of the TV. I have a 70" on the wall but I am wondering if it's better to have these if I can get them behind as opposed to the strip so I'm unsure? I'd want two so I can have two different colours (one at the top, one at the bottom) at the same time. Thanks for such a fantastic and informative review 😊

  • @Toliman.
    @Toliman. 5 лет назад

    I think I was doing this in 2014 with Kodi ... before the LED strips and using the old, slower hub v1 which often guessed a color to use. And the old Gen1/2 bulbs didn't really handle green, blue or purple at all, due to the overdose of yellow and lack of blue LEDs. now that Qdot and SMD's exist, and perhaps capellix or similar filtered 'dot' SMD's, it might be cheaper to get a decent bar-type SMD with good RGB. Bias lighting tends to work as long as you don't see the source or shadowing IMO.
    2 or 3 lights tends to work best, but it looks like you can add more with Play and strips adding to the ambient effect.

  • @Ervin-1190

  • @artyboy1377
    @artyboy1377 2 года назад +2

    I ordered the 2pc lightbar + extension and the bridge after watching your video. I'm glad I did as I was considering the Corsair LT100/LS100s before watching your video. They are very expensive for ambient lights but you get what you pay for for the quality you get + the smart home apps support. I actually have a Logitech G560 which has light sync stereo speakers but they are just not bright or intensive enough.

    Pretty stoked. I've had the regular warm/cool hue lights in my bedroom for about a year now, and I've wanted some RGB ones ever since.
    Not sure where I'm gonna use these, but I'm looking forward to the utility.

  • @seanc.5310
    @seanc.5310 5 лет назад +3

    Hey Mike great video as always! I just got a set of these last week and I love them except for the power connections. Since they have relatively short power cords and have to both plug into the power wall wart it can be tough to spread them out. Too bad Phillips didn't allow a daisy chain from light -> light. Also think they are a bit pricey but hue is the best lighting ecosystem and I'm already well invested in it!

    • @JasonSorenson
      @JasonSorenson 5 лет назад

      They make a 16' extension cord. Yes - 16 FOOT. Currently out of stock most places but it is at least an option. Unless I am running the power through the wall, not sure I can see where 16' per light makes much sense..... but there you go. Part Number - 7820430U7

    At the time of me writing this the only way that i am aware of to sync the TV content with your HUE lights without "Hue Sync" is if it is a Philips TV with "Ambilight" feature. The TV in itself has lights but can also as far as i know sync with other HUE lights in your setup. Check to be sure.
