- Regular viewers will know I have @PhilipsHueofficial products around all of my home.. however the bathroom still had the 'dumb' LED light that came with the house. It's fine, and does the job, however - it's REALLY bright - so a late night toilet trip is sure to wake you up!
Philips Hue have had bathroom down-lights for a while now, but I wanted something to directly replace the existing fitting..
Step forward the Hue Xamento!

I love that light! Great having, not only a dimned light at night, but a non blue light. I had no idea about that.
Wonderful video 👏👌
Really like quality of hue lighting
Yeah.. it’s lovely, isn’t it
Great vid cool 😎 light 💡
Thanks for watching David!
@@kiphakes No problem
Thanks so much for this video. Just ordered one of these instead of the non waterproof one for my office as it was cheaper and bigger which I preferred. Btw just a suggestion for when you were screwing in, get yourself an electric screw driver. I bought Bosch one a few years ago for a large piece of furniture thinking I’d never use it again…I use it that much that I don’t put it in my shed with my other tools. Would have got them ceiling screws in within seconds!
Ahhh awesome! I've got an electric screwdriver - I just don't really use it, I tend to like the 'feedback' through a 'manual' one :)
i mean no offence by this but you are the most Kip looking Kip i’ve ever seen, good video, the hue range is interesting but expensive
Thanks.. I think? 😂😂
Another good video Kip. I know where to come now when I require a labourer! What you like with a wall chaser ;o)
Haha.. I think I had a quick play with Nick's Metabo when I filmed some vlogs with him.. I think i'll respectfully pass :)
Would have been quicker to just use the wago connectors to connect the light to the line and neutral instead of bothering with the supplied screw in terminals
Cool. How do you set it up so the extractor fan comes on when needed?
That has its own switch.. so we put it on when needed.. will be looking at a way of making that a bit smarter in future!
Hi there do you have an extractor fun - can you configure this to work with the hue
I’m working on a video for exactly this
Thanks for the video! May I ask what mm screws you used? I read that 6 and 8 mm fall through the holes. Thanks!
Have updated the video description with the fixings and screws I used. The 3 x metals washers in with it stop it falling through.
Hello ,
Can I control this light with the dimmer ,without having the hue bridge ?
Thank you!!
Alexander
No.. you could use it via Bluetooth, but the dimmers aren’t Bluetooth compatible, they need the bridge
@@kiphakes thank very much for your response !!!
I have the ceiling lamp but however with motion detecting it wont turn on or off
Double check your motion sensor set up?
@@kiphakes i really dont understand it what setting should there be. Plz help help help
@@umm2012 can’t really offer tech support.. I’ve got another specific video on the motion sensors - maybe go look at that
