Unbelievable Multiple Philips Hue Bridges
I have today about 36 devices and planning on adding a few more.
Multiple philips hue bridges. As of a few firmware updates ago Hubitat was updated to handle multiple Hue bridges. Select hue bridges and click in the bottom right. Use 2 Philips Hue bridges in one house.
Has the Philips Hue Bridge to manage smart bulbs. Unlock full suite of smart light features with Hue Bridge. I dont know if many developers will have multiple bridges but Im happy to test out new code if youd like.
I have one at my home and one at my boyfriends home. Connecting to multiple hue bridges. After that you start to get odd problems such as bulbs turning their selves off and back on or just ignoring commands.
Thats the only thing that is still missing without any documentation anywhere. So right now the app sees all of my Arlo cameras my WeMo plugs. The Philips hue bridge can control all the bulbs.
Most Zigbee bridges support Zigbee lights from different manufacturers. The Philips Hue bridges generation 1 and 2 by Signify are fully supported in Hue Essentials. The Hue bridge has a limit of the amount of bulbs and accessories that can be connected therefore if you hit this limit you will require another bridge.
Weve found the real limit much smaller close to about 35-40 lights per Philips Hue Hub. However you can only see the lights and accessories from one bridge at a time. Just go to the hue app go to the settings tab.
