Many companies do this before Black Friday. They will raise it to its "normal" price and then on Black Friday it is back on "sale".

I have noticed other items on Amazon doing this too. For example: https://camelcamelcamel.com/Sylvania-Smart-Home-72922-LIGHTIFY/product/B01M6UM8QD?context=search

They were $14.99 and just before Black Friday and now the price is back up. I expect the price to drop to $14.99 again during Black Friday.

This Zigbee switch should be compatible with the Hue bridge, but I can’t personally vouch for that as I don’t own any of these.

Here’s a helpful Amazon review for it, “After experimenting with adding this plug to my Philips Hue system, I finally figured out how to add it without any trouble. I held down the power button while inserting the plug into a wall socket. I kept the button held down for about 6 seconds and then heard a ‘click’ sound. I was then able to find the light with the iConnectHue app’s ‘Search’ feature. It could probably also be found this way with the Philips app, but I didn’t try that.”

Do you use SmartThings? I ran into the same scenario with as you with the freezer/garage GFCI. I run this automation to ping a zigbee outlet to make sure it is running.

For the outlet, try the Sylvania Smart Home plug: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M6UM8QD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_mFh9BbDQ3RJ4N

This "SYLVANIA Smart+ Indoor Plug" works with Hue for me in the USA.

I have a few of these, and I have no problem with them. $14.99 and zigbee.

I use them with my Hubitat hub, so they'll probably work perfect with SmartThings too, and HA I'm sure. Lot of the bad reviews center on it not being compatible with the hue hub anymore, or problems with Wink.

Apparently the osram lightify stuff is branded as "sylvania" for US.

This should be the same but for 120V US outlets.

u/super_spyder · 2 pointsr/smarthome

I don't know the Wink system, but I use Smartthings which is similar. You should be able to pick up a compatible z-wave/zigbee plug, or outlet and a zwave/zigbee button and set up your hub to trigger the outlets when the button is pushed. I use a Samsung motion detector in my kitchen to trigger the lights on/off automatically and it works pretty well. I haven't used the Sylvania stuff, but it looks like it should do the job.

It’s also possible to do with a zigbee plug such as

It shows up as a light on the Philips hue bridge.

SYLVANIA SMART+ ZigBee Indoor Smart Plug.

I was able to add them to my system through the native Hue app, using the 6-character serial number printed on the switch, and they work perfectly.

u/dhrosen · 1 pointr/homeautomation

Thats what I'm trying to get away from, more hubs. Half wish I went with a more expansive system like Insteon.

Reading the reviews on Amazon, sounds like only the older model works directly with the Hue hub, is that what you have?

u/AmosRatchetNot · 1 pointr/smarthome

Checking Amazon reviews on some devices however, there are people complaining about Wink compatibility such as with the Sylvania outlets and motion sensors.

​

But it's also entirely possible it is user error.

Only if that light is 12/24V or you then hook up a relay to switch 110V. There's the implication that this works for switching: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M6UM8QD/ref=asc_df_B01M6UM8QD5413698/

u/AMagnificentBiscuit · 1 pointr/Hue

Thank you for the detailed response. For me, I will likely be using just basic white LEDS, not RGB, so color space isn't a factor in this particular project (just wanting better lighting in my garage).

I was planning on using these modular LED enclosures attached to the ceiling, and then I wanted to control their on/off capabilities with something compatible with the Hue app. For that I think the Gledopto Dimmer Switch might be able to work, I'd need to adapt it somehow from the three prong power outlet that's included in the enclosures.

Ideally I was hoping to find something like this smart outlet, but from the recent reviews it seems that it's not compatible with Hue. I have yet to find one that explicitly states that it is verified Hue compatible. This would be nice because then I wouldn't have to worry about rewiring like I will with the Gledopto dimmer.

It don't know much about the flickering, I will have to research that some more.

Again, thank you for the response, if I ever want to do more Hue projects with proper RGB lights, I will keep your advice about color protocols in mind.

u/bacOncall · 1 pointr/amazonecho

Can you provide a link to the product on Amazon? I don't see any Sylvania smart wall plugs in the "simple setup" list.

edit: nevermind, I see it now, I'm just blind. That should definitely work with Echo Plus.
