Hi all.

I have a few decoration lamps which use e14 bulbs. They’re all on Hue but they are the only lamps left in my house not on Aqara.

Any chance we see e14 from Aqara at some point?

I would like to have only one zigbee network inside and I do prefer using zigbee to Matter.

Thank you!

Hello @airchtit
There’s no information about this base yet.
You can add your bulbs to Aqara Home via Matter Bridge Hue.

Hi @airchtit
Thank you for your request!
After the launch of the LED Bulb T2,we have received feedback from some users hoping that Aqara will add E14 bulbs to the product line.We will be adding this specification in the future,but it will take some time.Thank you for your support of Aqara products.

Thank you! This is fantastic news! I am one of those who like to stick to one specific brand once they have found happiness so it is very happy. Thank you!

Indeed, fantastic news. For the time being, what would you recommend, @airchtit?

Govee
Legacy Philips Hue (with addition of a Bridge)
New Philips Hue (direct Matter / Zigbee support without a Bridge)
Something else?

Nothing compares to Hue, so if you don’t have too many go for it.

I like zigbee so I would go for the bridge rather than matter which is still young and relies heavily on your network equipment and configuration.

I’ll keep my hue for now but I will gladly switch to aqara when they’re released as they offer a better quality/price ratio imho.

Now that we’re getting e14, the only yhing missing for me is proper neon lights indoor and outdoor like the new hue.

Those things are just amazing.
