Phillips hue light strip plus without bridge

  • Hey there,


    I'm setting up Hyperbian for my buddy with a set-up I use at home, but he only has one light strip from Phillips hue that is bluetooth-enabled and does not rely on the bridge.


    Is there anyway for me to set his light up without telling him to purchase a bridge?


    Thanks

  • Technically it's possible, but you'd still need a zigbee controller. For instance, I have a conbee II USB stick in my home server. I run software called deconz that lets me add (pretty much) any zigbee device, including Philips hue. It was discovered in the Hyperion Philips hue wizard automatically.
