Anyone using Philips Hue Without Bridge (Not Lux)

Devices & Integrations

I´ve seen a number of uses cases connecting connecting direclty Philips Hue Lux directly with ST but not the Philips Hue (white dimmable).

I try to add a thing but never finds it…Any thoughts?

regards

I bought a Hue RGBW that I could not pair directly to my ST hub. I do not have a phillips hub.
I had to reset the bulb with a phillips remote before it would pair.
Might be worth trying.

Thanks…a bit frustrating to use a remote that I don’t have it. If I purchase a hue Bridge are there a any significant differences between v1 and v2?

I have a Phillips Hue hooked up directly to St and have no issues

@Crog how did you paired it with ST? You used the remote to reset the bulb?

Same here - Philips Hue White bulb direct to ST hub. There was a thread I followed and works great - dimming and all

Read this - Hue bulb without Hue Bridge?

Go to ST App and add them to network. Once you add them, go into the dashboard https://graph.api.smartthings.com and change the device type to GE Link Bulb.
