Best ZigBee light bulbs for controlling with Xbee

XBee & XBee Gateway

Hey guys,

I am trying to create my own home automation solution just as a fun side project. I have a XB24-Z7WIT-004 and am currently able to connect to some ZigBee enabled motion sensors. Now I am trying to find a good ZigBee enabled smart light bulb that I can control with my Xbee module. I know that the Hue bulbs use ZigBee, but it doesn’t appear that there has been much success with controlling these with Xbee. Are there any other good ZigBee light bulbs out there that I can control with my Xbee?

Greatly appreciate any feedback,

Thanks!

From what I recall, most of the Zigbee Enabled lights such as the Hue use the Zigbee HA profile which requires the XBee ZB S2C module and not the S2B modules you have.
