Philips Hue Econic Square Outdoor Smart Wall Light, Black - White and Color Ambiance LED Color-Changing Light - 1 Pack - Requires Hue Bridge - Control with Hue App and Voice - Weatherproof

I recently replaced my old 1970s outdoor light fixtures with the Philips Hue Econic Down Outdoor Smart Wall Lights, and what a fantastic upgrade! These lights not only modernized the look of my home but also brought tons of functionality that my family loves.The color-changing feature is a huge hit, especially with my kids, who enjoy changing the colors through the Hue app. It's also super useful to pair them with Apple HomeKit automations. I’ve set them to turn on and off based on the time of day and have also incorporated other triggers, like motion or when someone arrives home, which adds a layer of convenience and security.The installation was simple, and once connected to the Hue Bridge, everything worked perfectly. The weatherproof design is great for outdoor use, and the E26 bulbs provide both warm white light and fun color-changing options. If you’re looking to upgrade your outdoor lighting with smart features, I highly recommend these!

The media could not be loaded. I expect a lot from Hue and these lights delivered. The build quality is excellent and the light are extremely bright. They look great on and off. These really modernized our home. It should be noted no installation hardware what so ever is included. This comes with the light and nothing else. Not even wire nuts which I thought was cheap of Hue. If you are able to install these to your existing box using all your existing hardware and wire nuts you will be good to go. However I feel most people will need to buy something additional to install these so beware. I have installed these as wall lights and one as a kind of post light near my gate. Several people have asked about the lights inside. I have included photos of the LED panel inside the unit.Some people complained that these let in water or bugs. The last installation step clearly says to seal the units with caulk. I live in Florida with lots of bugs and water and I have had no issues. I sealed them around the edges with silicon caulk.Pros:Looks great on and offBuild quality is excellentEasy to install with the right hardwareVery bright and colors look greatCons:No installation hardware includedInstructions could be better

Husband installed these over two outdoor doorways in an old building, replacing fixtures that no longer worked.These were a royal pain for him to set up because the parts supplied didn't fit (I'm sorry I don't have details).Electrically they are correctly, safely installed. But he had to rig them as far as securing the fixtures to the building. He did. They're secure. It was a pain.But I love these lights! The simple design means it fits with virtually any style home (our style is "old brick school"). We can manage the lighting from afar. And the fixtures are just as reliable as the Philips Hue Smart Bulbs we use and depend on around the house.If you have a more modern building, replacing an old fixture with this light will probably take no more than half an hour. But if not, you may run into some issues. Not insurmountable, but annoying.

Absolutely LOVE these lights!!! Purchased 3 of them, 2 for ether side of the garage and 1 for the front porch. Originally had Hue bulbs in all three locations to work with my Hue bridge and now with these stand alone units, they will light up the entire front of my house. They are bright as heck and look amazing, worth every penny!!!

I think I've bought 9 of these over the years. They are high-quality, easy to install, and look and work great. I've tried the other Econic models and this is the most versatile - I've even used it as an indoor ceiling light.

Like everyone else is saying, no hardware for install is included. I had to find some random stuff around the house to secure it to my front entry junction box. No need to beat that horse any more than it already has though. Hopefully Philips reads these and includes mounting hardware for a product at this premium price point.The light is robust, heavy metal and glass. It is bright. It links up to the Hue system easily. It looks really nice in the entry way, and really lights up my drive and pathway to the house. I have it set to sunset to sunrise, and it works flawlessly.With Hue, you are definitely paying a premium price, and there may be cheaper products that offer a similar solution, but if you live in the Hue world and like to easily automate your house, this is a great addition. I am slowly switching my property over to all Hue. For me, the product is worth the premium. Now please give us the .05 cents worth of nuts and bolts.

Bright, easy install and set up.
