- Recently, an issue has been causing Philips Hue smart lights to randomly switch to full brightness.
- The company has now acknowledged the issue.
- The problem appears to be linked to an issue where random temporary radio traffic disruptions are recognized as legacy switch power toggles.
Have you been experiencing problems with your Philips Hue smart lights recently? Late last month, we reported on an issue where these smart home bulbs would suddenly switch to full brightness out of nowhere. The company has now acknowledged the issue and has a solution you can use until a permanent fix is rolled out.
The brightness problem first came to our attention only about two weeks ago when one of our team members noticed their smart lights malfunctioning. As it turned out, this is a situation that quite a few people have run into based on Reddit posts. One commenter suggested that the problem could be linked to a recent software update to the Hue Hub. It seems that the commenter was on the right track.
