B22 or amazon 3 for £40
Yes I've seen those Amazon 3 packs but they are the newer bulbs with Bluetooth and I want to avoid those if I can data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
You have 22 bulbs in one room? I'm sorry, but how does that look? Does that include ceiling spot lights? I have 3 in my living room and quite fancied the Play Bars behind the TV but not sure if it'll be overload.
The only room I haven't Hued is the kitchen
Yes ceiling spot light, wall up lights, standing and table lamps, and a couple of wall washers.
Not all of them are on at the same time. The ceiling ones are white ambience. The rest are colour. We use different scenes.
Ceiling ones are only on;
- Full when hoovering in the evening
- Partial when having the ironing board in the lounge https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/[email protected]/png/64/1f602.png
- Strobe fill when having a disco https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/[email protected]/png/64/1f973.png
Our kitchen has 20 as well data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
I thought I'd gone overboard but my efforts are puny in comparison (8 in my smallish lounge and 16 in my kitchen)
Whenever we redecorate a room we replace all the bulbs and lighting. Also have done the utility, outdoors, master bedroom, two other bedrooms, and first floor landing.
Still got to do the downstairs hallway, dining room, guest room, and office. https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/[email protected]/png/64/1f602.png
My mother recently came to stay and used my room which has a Hue switch on the wall but she couldn't work out how to use it. She then took it off the wall and lost the remote in the bed! I got a message 10 minutes later asking to turn the lights off https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/[email protected]/png/64/1f602.png this happened every night for 2 weeks!
I have the Hue Go but I don't rate it. Is the Play better?
Wow 22 is crazy and way over my budget too lol
Will stick with 3 for now, guess that should be ok going from red - orange then yellow
Guess 5 would be nice as then you would get more of a blend
The 3 sets are back on offer at £69.99 with hub colour bulbs on amazon

I ended up getting a 3 pack of colour E14 bulbs and a 3 pack of white ambience B22 bulbs. They were both reduced on Amazon and good value in my opinion data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
I did have to compromise on the B22 bulbs though as they are the ones with Bluetooth as well. Hopefully in the future there will be a way to disable the Bluetooth.
