I realized I have some old hue bulbs laying around, and they’re working well enough with my Zigbee controller (no bridge), but if I decide to scale up I definitely don’t want to pay the Hue premium.
Anyone have a Zigbee bulb brand they recommend? I hear Third Reality is nice?
Mostly echoing what’s already been said, but i use Ikea and aliexpress tuya bulbs. The Ikea ones I like best, and the Tuya i only use for RGB. They arent as bright, but they arent bad for the price.
