I’ve heard of this with hue. From what I understand, you basically need to take the bulbs and connect them to another ZigBee hub, since they’re ZigBee under the hood.
But you have to do it using some pretty frustrating methods because they are programmed to only connect to their own hub.
IDK. Only my TV is “SmartThings” so, hopefully I can work on that. I’m not a fan of ZigBee since it shares a band with WiFi. I’d rather just get rid of them, but I have a hard time justifying the cost of replacing that many smart bulbs with basically the same thing because my brain gives me the happy chemicals when everything is organized and works the same way.
Also, the Mrs uses the hue app and I’d have to get her over to home assistant instead, it’s a whole thing. Basically, I don’t have very good reasons to change it, and I don’t have good reasons not to, so I’m at a bit of an impasse.
