Best lights for entertainment and mood settings
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best lightning for any entertainment room. Been using them for gaming and movies for 2 years and they’ve never failed! Still bright and great quality. Can’t recommend anything else. Nothing comes remotely close to these lights.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Brightness, Price

Get the refurbished. Accept no substitute!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this w the sync app. Synced to my PC. you can change the intensity from subtle to intense. It’s amazing. The stands are simple and sufficient. I used 2 for my 42 inch LG OLED Monitor. I think 2 would be plenty for anything up in the mid 50inch. Perhaps more depending on the distance you have to the wall. They are extremely bright. FAR brighter than I thought they would be. Philips hue bulbs are expensive but that is justified by their value IMO. Their life is ridiculously long, they are plug and play, and they are of the highest quality. Buy the refurbished to maximize value. I’ve tried substitutions and they are insufficient. Low brightness, lower quality color spectrum, and so terribly incompatible and/or buggy w the app. PH are worth it for a few dollars more. Enjoy!!

Great for Vibes
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these! But keep in mind, they do make the FAINTEST sound when you have them on brighter whites. Had em for years, they work amazing. I just have them set to lower brightness in the hue app, unless i want them colorful.

Bought This as a 3rd Light for TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We initially bought the double pack of the Hue Play lights for our 77" TV which are great. We decided to pickup a 3rd given the size of our TV to put in the top center on the back. Since the light seemed to not reach the center of the TV with it being a 77". It was easy as ever to add the third light to the Bridge and get it synced up. Again, I had no complaints with the GS Refurbished light. It was packaged as if it was brand new. These lights look great and make it easier on your eyes when watching movies in the dark..

Easy set up, bright enough for a small space.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a small space, so the amount of light it emits is perfect. I could see in larger spaces you may need a more powerful kit. Easy to install and set up. The Hue app it works with through Bluetooth is user friendly.

They Look Great!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have never bought anything that was Geek Squad Refurbished however I was not too worried being that these mount on the back of your TV. My only reservation was "what if" they failed or did not work out of the box. However you wouldn't of known these were refurbished if the listing hadn't said so! They were packaged great and included everything that a new set would have. We have a 77" OLED and have one mounted on each side as well as a third on the top in the center! Pros: - Easy setup with Bridge - Look Amazing! - Easy to use with App - Cheaper than New set - Can create a ton of scenes to change on the fly and pair them with other light (Like the Hue Go lights pictured) Cons: - Do not stick to plastic back of TVs well. Had both fall off at some point BUT my TV has a metal back that I moved them to and have not had ANY issues since!

Philips Hue's Gradient Lightstrip Is a More Elegant, But Pricey Way of Jazzing Up Your Home TheaterWhile it definitely ain't cheap, if you're looking for a way to spice up your home theater, when combined with the Hue Sync box, Philips Hue's new Play Gradient lightstrip is the way to go.

Q: QuestionDoes this model change color to match the tv screen in real time or is it independent of what is happening on the tv screen?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer You will need to purchase Hue Sync if you want it to match TV screen. The picture shown has three Play (one on each side and one at bottom of TV along with Gradient Light Strip and Sync module. I would upload movie but does not support. It works fantastic and worth the money IMHO.

Asked by Darrellwcook.
- A:Answer Either model will work with Sync. Cord is approx 6' long.

Q: QuestionIs this the single bar that is the Extension for the Dual Bar Kit? It's confusing, because there are two, single bars. And, I'm not sure how you tell the difference between the two? Can someone please explain what the difference is between them?
Asked by Darrellwcook.
- A:Answer This is the single light bar with the power pack.

Q: QuestionI understand that Phillips Hue lights have a life expectancy in terms of hours. Do "Certified Refurbished" items come with the same life expectancy as a brand new light bulb?
Asked by DarkSide.
- A:Answer The brand new product has a estimated time of 250,000 hours which is 28.53 years. So its safe to say you will get at least 20 years of use out of them.
