Philips Hue Calla Outdoor Smart Pathway Light - White & Color Ambiance LED Walkway Lights - Low Voltage Lighting - 1 Pack - Requires Bridge and Power Supply - Control with App and Voice - Weatherproof

I bought these Philips Hue lights for my front yard since it’s very small (I only need 4 lights) and I wanted to do it myself (so it had to be easy). This product fit the bill perfectly! It was very easy to install - no need to add a transformer since it’s already included in the power supply. In addition to the power supply, I bought one Calla outdoor pathway light, three Lily XL outdoor spotlights, three cable extensions, and a Hue bridge. I am very pleased with the results. I was concerned that the light cast from the Lily XL spotlights would be too wide (I wanted to regular spotlights but they were sold out) but I find that these spotlights cast a lovely soft glow into a large tree and softly frame my front windows to accent the architecture of my home. I have an Echo Dot which can be used in lieu of the Hue bridge but opted to buy the bridge instead since I do not use my Echo Dot all the time. Set up was very simple. I downloaded the app and it’s easy to change light colors and routines. These lights are a little expensive compared to other landscape lighting options but Philips Hue landscape lighting was a better option for me since I didn’t need that many lights. If I had a large yard and needed more lights or knew I’d never want to change the light colors, it might make more sense for me to get other landscape lights. But this was a perfect option for me! It’s rained several times since I installed these lights and it’s been below freezing at night. No issues so far.

I bought 4 "base kit" bollards when they went on sale and finally got around to putting them up 6 months later.Turns out the marketing material is not accurate and you can't daisychain the lights together as you would Christmas lights - you need the extension kit with a T-shaped adapter to power up to 5 bollards/lily spotlights on one power supply.I had to order 3 more extensions and am trying to figure what to do with the 3 other base kits now ... other than that, the setup was easy.PRO TIP:Plug them all in when you are inside and add them / update them before you install them outside!They are easier to add and troubleshoot when they are closer to the hub.I was impressed with the sturdiness of the materials - the bollards geeky high quality and tough - even the spike was made of a sturdy material.Be careful when pushing them into firm ground you can apply a LOT of pressure as long as it's even and straight down.I was able to string 4 callas and a lily spotlight on one power supply.These lights combined with the outdoor motion sensor are very good for when visitors come over, and for using as security lights that might scare away burglars.I'm going to add another steering of 5 in the back garden, but I'll need to figure out a way to dig a trench and bury the extension cables I bought at least 6-8 inches under ground.I'm very happy with the purchase & the setup is definitely DIY friendly (unless you need to run power to the area you want to put the lights, then you should get an electrician).

Was a gift and it works really good . Lots of options for it with different lights and easy to install.

Hue bulbs are my favorite. I have six of these in my front yard, and one started to lose some of its colors, so I had to replace it after three years. I got a great deal on this one and was able to replace it easily. I guess getting three years of daily use out of one, being outside is pretty good, but I hope they do last longer. I have a lot of these products in my house, so I have a strong mesh network. I Never have any issues turning these on or off or adjusting colors because of that.

Price too highgood product
