Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance - Smart bulb starter kit, White

The Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance Starter Kit (2x E27, Hue Bridge, 929002468810) is a lighting system designed for general use. The kit includes two LED bulbs, each delivering 1100 lumens—the equivalent of a 75 W incandescent lamp. Each bulb consumes 11 W and features integrated dimming to adjust brightness without flickering. The colour temperature ranges from 2000 K to 6500 K, transitioning from warm to cool white. These A60 bulbs use a standard E27 screw fitting for compatibility with most household fixtures. The package includes a Bridge, which is required to manage the lighting network and synchronise multiple units.

The hardware communicates via Bluetooth and Zigbee protocols, as the bulbs do not have built-in Wi-Fi. The system supports voice control through Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit for hands-free operation. The hardware is rated for a lifetime of 25,000 hours and 50,000 switching cycles. An IP20 rating restricts use to indoor, dry environments. The bulbs reach full light output instantly without warm-up. The mobile application for Android and iOS allows for remote management and over-the-air software updates. Standby power consumption is 0.5 W.
