Product Information
Smart Lighting
We have a number of brands in the smart lights/bulb space, some work natively with Hubitat, whilst others have custom apps/drivers, and some currently don't have any connection.
Philips Hue - Native local integration available with the Hue Bridge that works very well, can only control bulbs and groups, not scenes. Bulbs can be paired directly to the hub (without Bridge) but are bad repeaters, so most use the Hue Bridge or a second Hubitat hub just for bulbs.
Sengled There are a few Element bulbs on the compatible list that can pair directly, they don't repeat which is good if you're mixing the lights with sensors. Careful not to buy WiFi/Bluetooth versions as they don't pair.
LIFX - No native support, but there are community solutions to using the bulbs locally. See this thread Lifx Local Control and this GitHub for Rob's code.
IKEA - The TRÅDFRI system from IKEA can be a bit hit and miss, but there are folks that use the bulbs directly with Hubitat using generic zigbee drivers. The wireless dimmers can be paired, but not the 5 button steering wheel. If you're using the Hue integration, then pairing the IKEA bulbs to the Hue Bridge and using them through that is another successful way of using them. The signal repeaters are quite weak, but can be paired to HE to help route for sensors, basically required if you want to use Xiaomi sensors.
TP-Link - Kasa bulbs are WiFi based and aren't natively supported, but there is a custom integration from Dave Gut that requires you use the Kasa app to setup the lights, but then can control them locally. TP-Link Plug Switch and Bulb Integration | GitHub
TUYA - Smart Life is a platform from a chinese company called Tuya. There are many manufacturers that use their chip and platform for their smart devices. There are many products in the Australian/NZ market (especially at the big chains) that leverage this platform. Hubitat doesn't have a native integration as it is cloud based, but there are two main methods that folks have to flash a different firmware (called Tasmota) onto the chip to gain local control over the device. Eric has a custom firmware driver for integrating those devices locally into Hubitat. Tasmota Sonoff Hubitat Driver. Refer to the Guides post below for more detailed information on using the Tuya devices with Hubitat.
