Is Costco offer for Hue starter kit a good deal?

[Paul Holzworth]

Dee Dee,
While at Costco, check out the FEIT smart bulbs.  They sell for 2 for $17 or so.  They are color changing and do cool white, soft white, etc.  They are WiFi and do not need a hub and can be controlled via Amazon or Google.  My only complaint is when you dim them, the scale is off. For example to get them to 50 % you need to dim them to 25% but that is a minor hassle.  Since you don’t need a hub, it is inexpensive to try a pair and see how you like them.  Costco has them online and in the store. I think online they are in a 4 pack.

Regards,
Paul Holzworth
