Question 1

Are Philips Hue smart outdoor lights weatherproof?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All Philips Hue outdoor lights are designed for extended or permanent outdoor use and are made to withstand the elements. Our outdoor lights are water-resistant and are IP (ingress protection) rated to IP65 for exposed outdoor use.

Question 2

Do I need a Hue Bridge to use smart outdoor lighting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It's essential to use a Hue Bridge if you want to use Hue smart outdoor lighting and controls. The Hue Bridge and Hue Bridge Pro offer an extended range using a Zigbee signal and each light acts as a repeater expanding the connectivity range when used with a Hue Bridge. A Hue Bridge Pro is a great option if you already have an extensive indoor set-up and want to expand to your garden, patio, front garden, driveway and entrances. The Bridge Pro lets you add 150+ lights to your Hue system: ideal for adding lights to your outdoor spaces.

Question 3

What are outdoor Low-volt lights?

Accepted Answer

The Low-volt collection of outdoor smart lighting is designed to make lighting outdoor spaces simple: you can connect multiple lights to a single power supply unit, plug it into any standard wall outlet, and immediately start lighting your space. There’s no need to permanently wire them into your home's mains electricity supply. Low-volt lighting uses a transformer to reduce that voltage to 24 V so it’s safer and easier to use. Many lights in the low-volt range come with the transformer included with the PSU (power supply unit.) These can be stand-alone lights or base lights that can have more lights connected to them in series using Low-volt extension cables.

Question 4

What are standard (line voltage) outdoor lights?

Accepted Answer

These outdoor lights are still smart, but they need to be wired to your home's mains electricity. This kind of smart outdoor lighting is usually permanently fitted to walls, façades and outdoor ceilings. For example; wall lights, lanterns and floodlights.

Question 5

Can I cut outdoor strip lights to fit my space?

Accepted Answer

No. Whereas many indoor strip lights can be cut to size and even extended, outdoor strip lights are not cuttable to maintain their weatherproof design.
