Does anyone know if Ikea tradfri bulbs are available in stores with the Hue compatible firmware yet?
I’d like to pick some up to use with my hue system, but don’t want to have to also get a tradfri gateway just to update the firmware…
no one can answer that, probably not even in the store itself. I’d wait a while longer, surely they have bigger stock than just for a week or so…

Just a quick bump on this topic to see if anyone has success with off the shelf tradfri bulbs and hue, without picking up a tradfri gateway to update bulb firmware.
Just found this information on a tech blog:
Check the production number on the box. Everything above “1721” shall have the updated firmware which allows to connect with Philips hue bridge.

Nice tip! Thanks
Thanks. Off to get some today without bridge hopefully!
I just bought charge 1726 which still contains the old firmware.
Any updates?
Ended up buying a new light fitting and innr bulbs so can’t help anymore sorry!
Ok. Tkanks for the reply.
