I hate using The Big Light™, but I can’t always have my room dark. My led strip that is up in the corner of the ceiling just died, so I’m looking for replacements. I’m not opposed to another one, I’m just curious what all else there is. thanks

edit: I might actually just replace my big light bulbs with hue bulbs or something (though those are mad expensive)

    Four lamps in different parts of the room, all with smart bulbs.

    They’re tied together into a single dimmer/color/temp selector in HomeAssistant.

    For ambiance, they’re usually running at like 35-40%.

      I got room for like one lamp on my nightstand at best. I’ll look into it though, I just have to make sure that whatever I get can be controlled from one Foss interface, no proprietary garbage

        IKEA bulbs are cheap and work nice with my HA and ZigBee USB stick. Quality of light is good though obviously Hue is better for x4 the money.
