I’m interested in buying the below Lutron Caseta wireless items. I originally planned to buy some GE Z-wave switches to use in my home. But with recent ST support i was thinking some advantages of going with Lutron Caseta Wireless Switches as It can be used with Apple Home kit, smart things support, Alexa & Google Home.

My questions:
- I’m currently using philips Hue & LIFX bulbs, Can i use both these bulbs using the above Lutron Caseta Wireless switch/bridge? I read somewhere that philips hue & certain other dimmable bulbs cannot be used/controlled with Lutron Caseta switch. Is this true ?
- Will the Lutron Caseta switches work the same way as the GE swtiches. Like if the light is turned off by using the switch, can we still turn it on using the ST app or Lutron app ?
- Any other advantages I loose by going to Lutron Caseta Wireless Switch instead of a GE Z-wave switches ? I dont have any smart switches at home. I only have ST &
My Home has Smartthings hub integrated with HA items like Philips Hue bulbs, LIFX bulbs, Harmony Hub, Alexa, Google Home, Kwikset Z-wave locks, Iris Motion sensors, Iris power outlet, Nest Thermostat,Protects & Nest Cams and Ring Pro door bell.
Thanks in advance for your time.
