1 year ago 52

If you're looking to add modern, convenient additions to your home, lighting is a good place to start. Smart lights make it easy to customize your space, and with most smart lighting, you can easily light your entire house and control the lights from your phone or compatible smart device

Right now Woot has a lot of different factory-reconditioned and refurbished Philips Hue smart lights, ranging from bulbs to light strips and a whole lot of options in between starting at $20. These smart lighting deals make it much easier to manage your lights from any room in your house (or even outside), and they are now through March 31 while supplies last.

Building an entire Philips Hue system doesn't come cheap, but that's why it's great to take advantage of deals. If you don't have a Philips Hue Smart Hub, start there. It's $32 right now and it serves as a gateway into a whole world of customizable lighting. This wireless hub will help you control your Philips Hue collection through the Hue app, even when you're out. With the ability to host up to 50 Hue lights of your choosing, you can easily control your environment with brilliant or soothing lights in wide array of colors. 

For everyday lighting, you'll want to check out the Philips Hue A19 two-pack starter kit for $61. The bulbs don't change color, but this kit does provide you with two Bluetooth A19 bulbs, as well as a handy Hue Bridge, which will work with the bulbs and the rest of the Philips Hue lineup and will give you control of your lighting experience by app voice command. For color lighting, try the BR30 two-pack. For $80, these dimmable bulbs offer over 16 million colors, giving you complete control over your lighting. And if you have a Hue Bridge, you can set scenes, time your lights and more, to make life a little easier.

And if you're looking for some ambient lighting that offers both a seamless color blend and a responsive light display, consider the Philips Hue 6-foot smart lightstrip base kit. It's a good size that can be used to add light to just about any area, from behind your TV stand to under your kitchen cabinets or anywhere else you may want customizable lighting. It's only $105 right now. And if you want to expand your lightstrip, you can also grab a 3-foot extension without a plug for $57. You can add up to eight extensions. There is also a Philips Hue Signe gradient floor lamp that can add gradient lighting to any room. It's $251 and the smaller table lamp is $179.

You can get the Philips Hue Play two-pack light bar base kit for $90. (You will need to connect it to a Hue Hub.) It will provide a splash of color to almost any space. You will need a hub, though. And if you're a fan of responsive smart lights and want to invest in more Philips Hue Play lighting, it's worth investing in the Philips Hue Play HDMI sync box, which has four HDMI inputs to connect your devices to your Hue lighting, and it's down to $169. 

There are also all-weather outdoor options including an outdoor security light for $59 (though it does require a Hue Hub), as well as an outdoor wall light for $84 that does not require hard wiring (but does require a Hue Bridge) and this three-piece spotlight kit for $260 (which also requires a Hub) to brighten up dark paths and keep you safe at night. 

For budget-conscious buyers, refurbished products can save you some money on technology that would otherwise cost considerably more straight off the shelf. All of the devices included in this sale have been returned, inspected and restored to full working condition and even come with a warranty (though the terms vary by product). Shop the entire sale selection so you can customize your space for less.
