    Are phillips things reflashable with esphome/tasmota? I’m not a huge fan of tuya, but so fari have been able to reflash/rebrain everything i gave bought from them. It should be a lot easier though :/

      There is no need to reflash them. Thy’re zigbee, you can just connect them to a different hub or to a zigbee dongle.

        Wait, all of them? Noice.

        Though I do have one that’s running a “candle” hue labs program, I wonder if I can replicate that outside the Hue environment.

          The special features are hard to replicate. Hue sync won’t work for example. That’s why I still use the hue hub in addition to a zigbee stick for non-hue lights and switches. But if they want a login I’d rather drop hue sync and just add the lamps to my zigbee stick.

          I looked this up a while back. Someone wrote code to try to replicate it in homeassistant on their forums. If I recall correctly, it didn’t work quite as well as the hue version but I haven’t have a chance/reason to try it yet. Maybe someday soon.

          Not all Philips bulbs actually, only Hue. They have another line called Wiz which uses wifi.
