Light
The light source is capable of generating a color temperature of 2200 to 6500 lumen. The brightness (lumens) of the Smarthome light was specified by Philips with 2400 lumen. For comparison, an average halogen tube has a value of about 410 lumens with a power consumption of 40W. Typical light bulbs from the old days usually consume about 25-40 watts per hour. The smarthome light described here Hue Struana Ceiling Light gets by in comparison with 27 w. However, it is important to note that Philips is free to define this specification within certain limits. It is therefore possible that the power consumption may deviate slightly when the light is on at full brightness.
Design
The first step is the sustainability check: The installed light sources are permanently installed by Philips and thus unfortunately cannot be replaced. Although LEDs consume less power and have a longer lifespan, this is very annoying, especially for larger devices. With bulbs that have the electronics directly installed, a change by the manufacturer is difficult to implement. This is unfortunately a pity, but currently unavoidable. The housing is made of synthetics in the attractive color white. The device weighs in at 1.792 kg.
Protection
The IP classification determines the degree of protection that mechanical and electrical housings offer against the ingress of foreign bodies, dust, accidental contact and water. These smart home lights have a classification of IP44.
