A foldable ribbon to attach anywhere
The Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus is a long 2 meter indoor light strip which has the particularity of being foldable and shapeable as we wish. It has an adhesive surface which allows you to stick it to a wide variety of surfaces: behind a television or gaming PC, under kitchen cabinets, along baseboards or even around the steps of a staircase.
And if it is too long for you, you can cut it along the indicated lines without damaging it; Note also that each separate part can be reused at any time. And if, on the contrary, the 2 meters of strip are not enough, one meter extensions are offered by the brand to benefit from an extra dose of colored light. The Lightstrip Plus is extendable up to 10 meters.
Easy control from your smartphone
Once properly attached, the Lightstrip Plus can diffuse the colored light you have selected directly on the brand’s application. You will also be spoiled for choice since more than 16 million colors are offered, as well as several shades of white, from the coldest to the warmest. Please note, however, that unlike the Gradient model, this ribbon can only diffuse one color at a time. To make your job easier, Philips has also thought about compatibility with the Google Assistant and Alexa voice assistants, practical for saving time and activating or deactivating the lighting using your voice.
To control the Lightstrip Plus, this is done from the application using Bluetooth. You will be able to modulate its color from your smartphone if you are at home and not too far from the ribbon. But if you want to be able to control it even when you are not at home, you will need to equip yourself with a Hue Bridge connection bridge, if you have not already done so. This part is essential to benefit from a longer range than with Bluetooth thanks to the Zigbee protocol, technology that the bridge uses to connect to your Wi-Fi. A Bridge which also gives access to a host of additional features, such as programming routines, simulating a presence in your home in your absence thanks to remote activation of the ribbon or even synchronizing the light with your films or music.
