How to pair the LivingColors remote to your existing Philips Hue system WITHOUT resetting the bridge.
Whatever you do DO NOT PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE HUE BRIDGE!
All other how to videos and tutorials I've seen do it the wrong way. When you press the button on the bridge you make the bridge accept the Zigbee network of the remote thereby resetting itself. May not matter much if it's a fresh system but on an existing system with lots of bulbs and settings it is not cool.
Here's how to make the remote accept the Zigbee network of the bridge - thereby you need to reset the remote instead which is by far the most preferable.
The LivingColors remote I've only found to work with Philips bulbs. As of current bulb firmwares (at time of video) I can't get it to work on Lightify or IKEA bulbs.
