The $49.99 Philips Hue Tap Dial<\/a> switch is a smart lighting<\/a> controller for the Hue superuser. It\u2019s the most powerful and innovative Hue accessory so far, with four buttons and a physical dial for dimming. Out of the box, the buttons and dial are tied to a zone or room, making it seem like an overpowered Hue Smart Dimmer Switch<\/a>. But why limit yourself to one room when this can control your Hue lights throughout your house? <\/p>\n

The Tap Dial is a wireless, battery-operated smart switch that can turn your Philips Hue lights on and off, brighten and dim them, and set lighting scenes. With a magnetic base, it can be attached to its included wall plate like a regular wall switch or placed on any metallic or flat surface for use as a remote control. <\/p>\n
