Howdy IOT people,

Sorry if this is not allowed, mods move or delete if you want.

I mistakenly bought 8 of these bulbs a few months ago but failed to realize they don't work quite well with my mains dimmer switch (yes, stupid i know).

Anyways, set them aside and then covid happened and forgot all about them so too late to return.

I was wondering if anyone wants to buy them off me, paid £102 for them but will let them go for €50 + PP, or can deliver free if in the north tipp / Limerick area if you want.

Would be really good for someone starting their HUE collection.

why not replace the dimmer switch?

I don't get the point of €10+ for a light bulb, would it not make more sense to get a remote controled light switch and use "normal" bulbs.

It more than a light bulb, you can do many "Smart" things with it for e.g. in my home i can

Schedule some to come on and off at different times
Some linked to motion sensors
Some that can mimic my TV being on
I can switch them on/off from my phone from anywhere in the world
I can have different scenes, bright lights, dimmed light, white light, yellow light all from one bulb

Hey Davo. I’d be interested in these if they’re still available.
