Currently on a re-wire and the customer keeps bending my ear about the above mentioned system.

From what i can see its very plug and play with a starter pack at £180 then bulbs at about £50 a go.

Does anybody have experience of these or have found a decent alternative to the philips system where the individual components dont break the bank?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
 
I have them around the house and they're really good IMHO - nice and bright and it's handy that you can setup automatic on and off times to make the house look lived in when you're away. It does get on your moobs having to use a smartphone / tablet etc to turn lights on and off constantly, so I would recommend you also get the "tap" switches.

All this is very expensive as you say, but if the customer is paying..... :)

There's also the "Lux" range which are cheaper and are basically wirelessly dim-able and don't change colour / temperature, but can be used with the Hue hub (I use these in the hallway / landing).
