So can you pair the feit can lights to the hue bridge?
feit cans are wifi. so no. the hue bridge is just a zigbee antenna. so theoretically you can connect other zigbee devices to it but idk how actual that is. I always thought the hue line was their proprietary zigbee code but i just read it isnt.

$33 apiece isnt a bad price but i have a feeling hue is hemorrhaging from the spate of cheap wifi color bulbs and no hub requirement so i cant help but think there's a price correction coming soon on these things.

because i dont want china controlling my lights. I was able to take apart my bulbs and flash tasmota with the help of DigiBlurs discord group. but look slike im going to use ESPHome instead of tasmota for different reasons, but ineed to learn it first.

Bump:

Anyone else get this Costco deal and have issues with them? I’ve never had any issues with any of my other hue lighting and whatnot, but for some reason I can’t get my existing hub to find these 3 bulbs. I even reset the hub to no avail.
Also I found it very strange all 3 bulbs have the same serial number. I’m thinking this might be my issue but I can’t get it to locate just 1 bulb without the other 2 plugged in. All my other bulbs have different serial numbers on them.

Be careful.... I got overwhelmed by Hue bulb fever and I have them all throughout my house, even in lamps and shite my wife always has the house in crazy colors
That could get crazy.

I have only White Ambience, except in the kids' rooms. Those crazy colors would drive me completely insane.
