Nice vid perhaps a bit more on when things go wrong. Pressed button 'til blue in the face - nothing except continuous red led - reset nothing but red light - then reset by holding for a long time it eventually worked - also the diagram that comes with it doesnt say you have to prize the back off to get to the reset button - why didn't they just drill a small hole to obviate all that fannying about?

Good review. I had hoped this might be a replacement for a ceiling light switch but it's not, so thanks for the info.

[@jerryleong3555]

Thanks so much for the video! Very detailed and clear. Your reviews are great, keep it up!

[@GeekStreet]

Thanks!

[@VM-xy5te]

Thanks for the video, this seems really helpful. I'm definitely getting this!!

[@GeekStreet]

Hi there, I'm looking for a light bulb that face in/out, which one are you using in this video?

[@RealInformationWorld]

Nice sharing stay connect friend

[@GeekStreet]

Thanks!

[@RealInformationWorld]

Geek Street you re welcome stay bless

[@anthonyjsalcido]

Is the magnet pretty strong?

[@francescodimizio598]

can I connect the button straight via BT to a bulb that's already connected to a bridge?

[@Sbuswell]

Thanks for the review! I do have a question about the smart button, wondered if you can help. I have three smart lights in my living room, two main lights and a lamp. Is there an option to set this button up to control the two main lights, but not the lamp? Thank you again.

[@GreeniusGenius]

I’m sure if you make a zone in the Hue app that should be possible.

[@Jonander2233]

yes, you can customize that on hue app

[@PETEFLICK]

Great upload my friend! Keep it coming!!! Enjoy your Sunday and as always full support from PETEFLICK!👍

[@mauriciob3334]

thanks

[@GeekStreet]

You're welcome!

[@ragingsilver]

I can't find a use for this for lights. I'd just press the wall switch lol

[@GreeniusGenius]

If you cut the power the smart bulbs using a dumb switch, they won’t be available to control via Alexa, via your automations, the app etc.

[@LU7HFUR]

How do you pair it with the plug?

[@mariusx6903]

Stand alone I will need two buttons for two lights within the same room? Is there any way to use one button for two lights controlled separately in the same room? Awesome video btw, keep up the good work!

[@markkunes9711]

assign the button and all the lights to a room then the button will control all the lights in that room.

[@azeeuwnl1961]

Thanks. And how do I install this in the place where now my wall switch is? How do I ensure it looks tidy and electrically sound.

[@plasmachicken]

Look up a Hue Wall Switch Module, that goes behind your current switch

[@PEKKADR]

He says that this button can work without a bridge. Does it mean that if i have a lightbulb that works with Google Home without ANY bridge i can use this button to turn it on and off? (The lightbulb is from Nooie)

[@GeekStreet]

No the bridge is required to work with Google.

[@PEKKADR]

@@GeekStreet ahhh that is a shame. Thank you for the help :)

[@1987RaPsCaLLioN]

I bought this for my wife and I to be able to turn on and off the lights without getting out of bed. Unfortunately you can only have one button per bulb so only she has the power, id like this a lot more if you could pair 2 buttons to one bulb like in my situation but apparently you can’t.

nice video

أحسنت النشر راااائع جدا جدا أستمر ربنا يوفقك ويكرمك بكل خير يارب ❤️

[@GeekStreet]

Thanks!

[@frogmasto]

does it only connect to philips hue bulbs

[@raflyabdurrasyid1124]

Is there any device like this (stand alone button, connect thru wifi) that works with tuya/smartlife ecosystem? Because i dont have phillips device and its expensive lol

[@GeekStreet]

Stay tuned i have product coming soon

[@joseduran9232]

How in the name of all that’s holy did you manage to set it up so that it just turns the lights on and off? It’s absurd that it’s set up to toggle light temps. I’m going insane!

[@user-cm7sx9du2x]

good luck

[@aberdeenal3234]

As always a very good and informative video with something that should be great but the product is very poor imo. I have 4 of these Hue buttons and none of them work anymore. 1 refuses to connect now despite being connected previously and that's after being reset (Philips refunded that for me), 1 forgets, after a few days, what it was programmed to do and the other 2 chewed through a battery per week despite not being used.

[@GeekStreet]

Thanks for sharing your experience, could it be a low / weak battery causing this issue you've had?

[@aberdeenal3234]

@@GeekStreet replaced with new batteries and still problem exists. When checking the voltage of the "used" batteries they were 2.5V after a week and only being used a handful of times

[@GeekStreet]

@@aberdeenal3234 now thats annoying, I'm going use myself see how it goes.

[@inhaleexhale]

I honestly don't see any need for this. I would either use a regular light switch or I would use Alexa's voice or an Alexa routine to turn on a light.

[@joshlarson5316]

What a terrible how-to video
