Philips HueSmart Play Light Bar Extension, Black - White & Color Ambiance LED Color-Changing - 1 Pack - Requires Hue Bridge and Hue Play Light Bar Base Kit - Control with App or Voice Assistant

The plug in the dual light kit handles three playbars so picking this up is an easy buy and lets you run three full lights off of a single power brick. These are a nice add to the hue ecosystem, easy to control, and get very bright at any color. I have 12 of them scattered around different places in the house adding access lighting. They come with two different mounting options in the box and the cord is very long allowing for flexible install options. I also added a few behind my TV to add some additional lighting in the dark spots from my Hue Play TV ambient lighting. They sync up with what is on the tv and fit in well with the ambient light strip. All in all they are a nice add on if already in the Hue ecosystem. If new to Hue, i wouldn't start with these.

Okay, never mind, product packaging is dumb. I thought the screws were missing, but they are just very very well hidden, such that I would've thrown then away if I didn't tripple check the package. the lights's good though.

10/10. If you’re a gamer, you NEED these. Not want, NEED. Especially, if you’re a sim racer/flier. Get four of these puppies and out two above you (yes, so the light casts down on you) and two behind your monitor splashed against the wall and be amazed. If the Hue app on PC fails on you, fret not. Download, SimHub, and set the lights up there, then fire it up every time you want your hue lights to mimic its section of the screen. I can’t imagine gaming without these!!

I stuck these to the back of my monitor with the light reflecting off the wall to use for virtual meetings. They work great for that. I don’t like lights shining in my face, and like a clear workspace. So with these mounted behind my monitor, I don’t see them. And with the light reflecting off the wall, it’s not blinding like if it was pointed at me. I’ve had other lighting setups that made my lighting better for the video, but this setup does well enough and is my favorite setup so far considering my other preferences.I also have Hue ceiling lights and a Hue light switch, so it’s nice that I can create a “Meeting” scene, click the remote, and all of the lights automatically get set to the color and brightness that I want. There are probably cheaper options and I do feel like Hue lights are overpriced. But since I already use Hue, it’s nice to have it in one app and controlled by a single click.

Easy to install. Easy to connect to Philips Hue app. It created a wonderful aura to our environment to add more light and/or accent lighting.

Someone already opened the box before I got it. I was very disappointed. Also, I was fairly certain from the product listing, that this item would have 2 lights in it. It only has 1 light and it doesn't have the power adaptor.

Beware! You need to have the power adapter (sold separately) or buy the listing with the "base kit".I had to buy the power adapter separately, I found a 3rd party one for under $20.That said I love the hue ecosystem and this light lit up my bedroom wonderfully. So far the 3m adhesive worked well. I would prefer if it came with drywall screws and a smaller bracket, I'll have to do all that myself.

I love the Philips Hue Play Bars, as I have the Hue application that syncs content on my Samsung TV with the lights. Additionally, Philips added the capability (via firmware update) to include my regular Hue color bulbs in the scene, so I can have potentially five different colors depending on the content. The play bars are set up with two at the bottom of the TV and one on top, with the two regular color bulbs to the sides of the couch. It makes watching TV or playing games much more immersive, and after using them with video or gaming content, it seems weird to not have it synced. You can also use these with the Hue Play Sync box, but that was a more expensive solution for my needs.
