Hi, I accidentally connected Hue bulb directly to ST Hub. How can I remove it from STHub and reconnect to Hue Bridge ? I know this is a tough subject and discussed several times in other threads. But it seems to be a device is existing for this purpose. What is that device and how can I get it ? …

I didn’t understand the problem with Lutron remote. I understand that it can reset my hue bulb which is connected to ST accidentally (ZHA). And then I will be able to use it with my Hue bridge again (ZLL) Is this correct ? Then the remote will be useless , or shall I be able to use it as a remote…

Curious. Why dont you want to just connect the bulbs directly to the ST hub? You essentially removing another fail point.

thanks. But if I get the Lutron remote, I would like to have use of it instead of getting another remote as you suggest. so I’m looking for opportunities… what can I use Lutron for ?

Philips “Living Color” devices are using a different protocol and are not compatible with the Hue bridge. http://www2.meethue.com/en-us/support/faq-detail/?productId=58344 [image]

so you say “get rid of the Philips bridge and have fun” :slight_smile: ? But I need a solution to add my Philips remotes as remote controllers to the ST hub then… any ideas ? Also, can I use the Lutron remote as a remote controller to ST ?

I can control my Hue bulbs with the Livingcolors remote when they are connected to the Hue bridge. I believe they use a compatible protocol. (well, I actually paired my Livingcolors remote to my Hue bridge)
