In case anyone is interested in getting into smart home lighting with the Philips Hue system, I saw that Noel Leeming have the starter kit on sale (ends today) with the Hub, 2 x white ambience bulbs (E27) and a wireless dimming switch, for $138, normally $199. I went to Mitre10 and they bet it by 15% so it was only $117.

I found them fine to setup, apart from the dimmer switch, which wouldn't connect properly. I had to google the problem connecting the dimmer switches, ,and eventually found a way to do it. Alexa integration seems to work quite well, but haven't found a way to set it so it will do something like, turn the lights off in 30 minutes via a voice command
