"I love Philips Hue, have loved them from the start and I was super excited to get outdoor versions when they came out. I was very surprised by the price of these lights. $200 for a single light is a little crazy in my opinion but I purchased 11 out door lights anyway. They were great for about 11 months or so, then one light suddenly wouldn’t stop flashing like a strobe light. Took the out of the daisy chain connection which completely screwed up my entire configuration, and found that despite how tight I had it on, water must have made its way into the t-connectors and cause rust and the pins were broken off completely. I got a replacement then a couple weeks goes by and another light, same issue, then another. Well now 4 out of my original 11 are non functional. That’s almost $800 in lights that barely made it a year. For that kind of money I’m a bit disappointed in the quality max needless to say that as they die I won’t be replacing them any longer, and probably going to look into more affordable brands. Maybe if they redesign the connection type and also find a better way for them to connect together, I might consider trying them again down the road. But reconfiguring was a headache in its self. Do I think they’re make great products,? Yes! Do I still love my indoors hue lights? Yes! I just don’t recommend the any of the outdoor lights, period. In fact, I have a standard color hue in my outdoor front porch light, even though it says not to do that but that light is gong strong for 3 years now…."

Purchased these to uplight our house for the holidays. So far we’re happy with the purchase as it’s easy to update for Halloween and Christmas. Color options are great and we’ll continue to update throughout the year!fernando

I’m a big fan of Phillips Hue. I have 23 different lights indoors and now this set outside.Wifi devices usually have connectivity problems when outside (due the thickness of the walls and windows). But this is not the case of this Philips set: connection is perfect 100% of the time (thanks to zigbee).The cord is in the middle of mulch, bushes, water and soil. And that’s not a problem. All working fine.Now I’m planning to extend this set and add two more spots.michael

Really easy installation and gets much brighter than I expected. I decided to use this one as an overhead light for my outdoor dining table.dan tammaro

I absolutely love these lights. I’m a big fan of the hue ecosystems. They were easy to install and get setup in the hue and apple home app. I love how each light can be changed independently. From May through September and have them set as red white and blue shining on my house. For October they were purple and green and for Christmas they will be red and green. The colors are spot on as well. No questions if red is red or slightly pink. I also love this system does not require an outdoor transformer system. It plugs right into your standard outdoor outlet.What Customers Talk About
