- Up to 1,100 lumen brightness (instead of the previous 806 lumen)
- Dimmable white light and colored light effects
- Control via Hue app and optional voice command
- Three models: Wall light, path light and plinth light
Philips Hue Turaco outdoor lights with up to 1,100 lumens and colored light
The new generation of Philips Hue Turaco outdoor lights offers a significant increase in performance compared to the original models. Instead of a maximum of 806 lumens, the updated versions now achieve up to 1,100 lumens. This makes the lights suitable not only for atmospheric accent lighting, but also for the functional illumination of paths, entrances or patio areas.
The models are equipped with an A60 light source that supports both dimmable white light and colored light options. This opens up additional possibilities when designing the outdoor area – from warm white light for cozy summer evenings to dynamic color accents for special occasions. Flexible lighting control is becoming increasingly important, especially in the smart home context, as outdoor lighting no longer only fulfills security aspects but is also part of a holistic lighting concept.
It is controlled via the Philips Hue app, which can be used to conveniently adjust brightness, color and schedules. In conjunction with a compatible Hue Bridge – such as the Hue Bridge Pro – additional functions such as voice control and advanced automation are available. For example, the Turaco outdoor lights can be combined with motion detectors or other smart home devices to create automated lighting scenarios. Integration into existing Hue setups is seamless, making the new models particularly suitable for users who want to expand their system in a targeted manner.
Three models for different outdoor applications
The revised Turaco series comprises three variants: the Turaco outdoor wall light, the Turaco outdoor path light and the Turaco outdoor plinth light. While the wall light is typically installed on house facades or garages, the taller path light is suitable for driveways and garden paths. The more compact pedestal light can be used flexibly in flower beds or along low walls.
In terms of price, the series is positioned in the upper smart home segment. The Turaco pedestal light is available in Europe for 129.99 euros, the path light is 159.99 euros and the wall light is 99.90 euros. In selected markets, including Germany, the models are also available via the Philips Hue Amazon store in addition to the official online store.
With this upgrade, Philips Hue is responding to the growing demand for high-performance, networked outdoor lighting. In particular, the combination of higher light output, color function and smart home integration makes the Turaco outdoor lights a versatile solution for modern outdoor areas.
Conclusion
The new Philips Hue Turaco outdoor lights impress with more brightness, color light support and seamless smart home integration. With prices between 99.90 and 159.99 euros, they are now available in Europe and add powerful outdoor options to the Hue portfolio. For networked lighting concepts in outdoor areas, they offer a sensible upgrade over the previous Turaco models.
