That’s awesome! Any idea how much these will cost?
Edit: just looked at the swedish ikea online store… They’re 299kr (about 30 euros) for the lightbulb + switch combo. 199kr for just the bulb, and 149kr for just the switch. Then they have a range of other types of bulbs with varying prices. You can take a look here (link in Swedish):
I was into buying bulbs from IKEA too, but after some googling it seems that it is not possible to pair the bulbs with the latest firmware on the Philips Hue Bridge 2.0
If you have an old firmware or an old bridge should be possible.
TRĂ…DFRI LED bulb and remote will be launched in 4 countries October 2016
(Sweden, Czech Republic, Italy and Belgium).
All other countries in Europe and North America will launch TRĂ…DFRI in April 2017.
I have tried the E14 and the G10 lights with Osram lightify hub. Was quite easy to pair them with the hub, didn’t even have to be that close when turning the lamps on to pair them. The only exception was the lamp that I had already paired with an Ikea controller, it wasn’t enough to unpair it first. It needs to be factory reset by turn off/on rapidly 6 times before it can be paired with the lightify hub. I have not been able to pair the Ikea controller with the hub so it is worthless if you going to use the lamps with lightify…
Osram lightify own app could not set color temp on any bulbs and only dim the G10 ones, not the E14. However, from hass I can change both color temp and dim the two types of devices so I am satisfied.
Yes but the Hue is fixed colour temperature, you can tune that on the Ikea. So different lights, Hue does have Whites now that you can do that as well, but they are more expensive.
