Title: Osram Lightify
Post by: Ohiomedic on March 13, 2015, 06:50:00 pm

Since we have Hue support would love to see support for Sulvania Osram Lightify.

I was just going by the company's page which made them look like wifi only. After checking prices on Amazon it looks like they are all Zigbee so they should work.

We've added initially support for them in R070as. Most things should work and you can connect the bulbs directly to the Almond+, no need for their hub.
Note that the support so far is only via the LCD UI, but we're going to add it everywhere.

The Lightify-bulbs use Zigbee Light Link.  You can add them to your Hue-hub (if you have one ofcourse :) ).
That way you should be able to look for them through the Almond Hue-support and also control them.

I like the lights strips better then the hues since you can add more strips to it, same with the outdoor garden ones.

Wasn't going to get any of the Hue line of bulbs, but found the Bloom starter kit for $129 on staples.com. Couldn't really pass up two Blooms and the hub for that price.
