Is it possible to support zigbee remote controls for RGBW, like this one?

So the remote does have touch-link capabilities which works well on hue lighting. The bulbs will need to be Zigbee ZLL compatible (like hue) as the Zigbee HA protocol does not support touch-link.

If using touch-link on the remote, any zone that is assigned touch-link devices will no longer broadcast to Hubitat to relay commands. So each zone can either utilize Hubitat or touch-link but not both at the same time.

I personally use the ZB-5028 remote to control Inovelli RGBW bulbs and it works great with my Hubitat. I do get some "popcorn" effect but that is an issue with Z-wave and not the hub. On remotes that I am controlling Zigbee lighting with Hubitat it is almost instant and is virtually indiscernible from using touch-link.

@Gnant Ah indeed! I got some Sylvania/Osram bulbs before seeing your response and also came to realize that the the US versions are not TouchLink compatible (ZHA).
Looks like options are limited for TouchLink compatible RGBW bulbs. Do you know of some?

Those Z-wave bulbs I tried earlier were actually the same Inovelli ones.

Maybe I'll look at moving my hub or finding a way to extend the range.
