I'm in the process of moving to LED and have made a significant investment in HUE. So far my review is mixed. The lights are nice and I like the ability to have color, but Phillips app and control is a bit lacking.
Now trying to integrate with CQC and interested in best practices for control from CQC. Some initial questions I have are:
1. In CQC do you have to control everything by individual light, or is there a way to combine for group control?
2. How many devices do you run on a single hub?
3. How are you controlling lights across multiple hubs if/when not doing so through CQC? The Phillips app requires you to switch the hub connection before you can control the associated lights.
4. In CQC I see a field for scene that is R/W, but not sure how you would control a scene without a group or room. Says it is enumerated with the default hue scenes, but how do you make use of this?
5. Does the CQC driver support motion sensors and switches? Does not appear to.
6. Any other advice or thoughts from users who have experience with the Hue system and integration to CQC?
Sorry if this has already been discussed. I didn't see any recent threads.
