In this video, I’m giving you a tour of my smart lighting setup in 2026. I’ll be sharing what I’ve learned over the years and what devices I would recommend for starting your own smart home journey. I’ll also touch on some things to avoid when it comes to smart lighting. This isn’t a traditional review video, but rather an overview of how I’ve set up my smart lighting system.

The Aqara T1 Light Strip link is wrong
What would you recommend for a new build property with lots of GU10 LEDs in the kitchen and bathrooms, and standard light bulbs in the other rooms? My setup is a HA Green with ZBT-2 and Aqara FP300 and P1 for hallway etc. Cheers
