when a ‘smart’ light bulb says it’s ‘dimmable via app’ - will there be a manufacturer specific app? or are generic smart bulb (iOS) apps that pop up going to work?
had originally planned to get an in-line dimmer switch to wire in mid-cable, but seems these aren’t quite as ubiqitous or cheap as i’s hoped (lamp itself is an £8 ikea job)
IKEA ones are generic ZigBee and controllable via the switches or any ZigBee system.
Can't say I've used WiFi one but I'd be concerned about having too many random devices pinging my home wifi. The kids already have hundreds of devices clogging it up
