A bit of a newbie with Hue Lights as I've been using Sylvania bulbs/fixtures. With the Sylvania Lightify bulbs, I do notice occasional connectivity issues whereby they are no longer reachable by the Zigbee mesh network. Most of the time the connectivity comes back after some time, but other times I have to completely kill power to the bulb.. These connectivity issues seem to be most frequent in the following scenarios:
- Table Lamps
- Outdoor Light Fixtures (yeah I realize these bulbs aren't necessarily rated for outdoors, but I live in coastal southern-cal)
- Ceiling Fan Fixtures - these are directly wired to power and not going thru a fan remote unit
Anyhow, I am considering switching some of these bulbs over to Philips Hue Zigbee ones, which are a lot more expensive than the Sylvania Lightify. Do Hue bulb users encounter similar types of intermittent connectivity failures that I describe above? Oh one note - I do have some of the outdoor Lily bulbs and so far these have been rock-solid in terms of Zigbee connectivity. I am hoping to help justify the expense for replacing some of my bulbs in lamps and fixtures. Thanks!!
