This reminds me of another problem with home automation: there's plenty of cool devices produced in the US that I'm not able to use in a 240V country, because of the voltage difference.
I recently bought a Hue starter kit, but I'm having trouble finding affordable white (4000K-5000K colour temperature) bulbs that are rated for 240V and have Zigbee Lightlink support.
- Ixiaus 11y agoWe have a lot of backers waiting on a European compatible version but it's a classic startup story for us: funding is the limitation. It requires a different power board in our product, which we're totally capable of designing, but the cost of maintaining those two versions, the cost and time to certify, and getting the contract manufacturer spun up for it is quite a hurdle in terms of bandwidth and money for us. I believe we're aiming at building a European version once we've closed our Series A.
