Extra-bright bulbs

I currently have a ton of the regular Hue bulbs (60 watts). I’m looking at getting a couple brighter bulbs, like the Hue Color 100 watt ($60) or Hue White 100 watt ($40).

But I know Hue is the most expensive; are there other Home Assistant-compatible bulbs in the 80-100 watt range?

Wiz lights have the brighter bulbs now, or check out ATHOM https://www.athom.tech/blank-1/15w-color-bulb

$60 and $40 are cost prohibitive.

What is your use case of this bright bulb?

I mean, would a regular (dumb) bulb plus an smart switch / smart plug not be working for you?

@k8gg I use the Phillips color bulbs to set fun colors, so I’m most interested in color + bright bulbs. A dumb bulb with a smart plug would definitely work, if not.

@avd706 wow, a Tasmota bulb for $15!

But ATHOM looks sketchy – it has a ton of typos. And the social icons at the bottom are all for the Wix sitebuilder! Uh…

Have you bought from them before? That price seems a bit too-good-to-be-true.

I have no personal experience of athom but a few YouTubers have featured them and they seem OK.

As far as I know it’s Tuya or similar that has been flashed and resold as athom.
