Aussie Michael:It's good! You'll love it. Certain places also stock the bayonet version. It seems most places have the edison screw.
I've been using a sensor at my office for a week now. It works pretty well. Setup is very easy with the Hue iOS app. You can set which scene to activate during daytime and select a different scene to activate at nighttime. You can select the length of time of sensing vacancy before the lights are turned off. A nice feature is that it will first dim the lights before turning them off. This gives you a warning if you've been too still at your desk so that you can wave your arm to keep the lights on. This has happened a couple of times. I believe that the sensitive can be adjusted to compensate for this. A find myself appreciating the sensor to turn the lights on hands-free when returning from court with my arms full of briefcases and files.

Aussie Michael:Thanks ed. I also see they have the white ambiance. I picked up one of those for the bedroom yesterday.
Chris Hassell:Hey everyone - do we know if the Hue Sensor can be used as an event on the BLGW? BV11-46, Beoplay A2, H3 ANC, Beo 4, Beoplay S8, Beosound Essence MkII
Hi everyone,
Almost two years ago there was this thread about using the Philips Hue Motion Sensor as a trigger/event for the BLGW.
Any news about it?
If it works, I could integrate it in my KNX-system and have a non-KNX motion detection system. If not, is there another third party motion detection system which works fine with the BLGW? I don't want a KNX-sensor, because of the programming my KNX-system.

I use the RadioRa2 occupancy/vacancy sensors as triggers. They work great. In fact, I find them to be more accurate and reliable than the Hue sensor. I use them in the bathrooms to trigger Philips Hue lights on/off in macros. The sensors themselves are inexpensive and very easy to setup. However, you must buy the RadioRa2 bridge.
