The Power of the Philips Hue Bridge:

The Hue Bridge is the heart of your smart lighting system. It allows you to:

• Add up to 50 lights and accessories: Easily expand your system with additional Philips Hue lights and smart accessories such as motion sensors.
• Set timers and routines: Automate your lights to help you wake up, relax before bed, and more.
• Remote control: Control your lights wherever you are with the Philips Hue app, making it seem like you're at home.
• Geofencing: Never come home to a dark house again thanks to the geofencing feature that automatically turns on your lights when you're nearby.

Extra Tech for the Pros (including Home Assistant):

• Bluetooth and Zigbee in one: The GU10 spotlights pair directly with the Hue app via Bluetooth for basic on/off and dimming. Add the Bridge for Zigbee power: sync with music, geofencing, and expand up to 50 devices.
• Top-notch compatibility: Works out-of-the-box with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri for voice commands. For those of you who love Home Assistant, the official Hue integration via the Bridge is seamless—discover entities for colors, brightness, and scenes, plus automations like sunset fade. I tested it: super stable, no cloud lock-in when running locally, and you can even pair the lights directly with a Zigbee dongle for Bridge-free setups.
