Wanted testers of new Hue v3 Bridge functions

Philips recently rolled out a new version 3 of the Hue bridge (black color), which supports the following new features:

  • ‘Speaker’ device that plays door bell chime sounds, and/or security alarm sounds.
  • ‘Door bell’ device that extends normal button devices to support door bell chimes above.
  • ‘Motion Aware’ areas that read RF signal fluctuations of 3 (or more) lights and infer a virtual motion detector device.

I have already written a PR (link below) to support these new devices and add a new ‘motion area’ thing type; but since I lack all the hardware necessary for testing I need other testers too.

In the meantime I acquired my own hardware for testing these new features. So please consider this thread as resolved.

Looks like nobody got this as xmas present …

Perhaps me :wink:
