Hue Impress outdoor lights are now available in the US The three 
weather-resistant lights were previously only on sale in Europe They're 
available from the Philips Hue online store, starting at $159.99 

There's a new set of Philips Hue lights available in the US, specifically 
designed for use outdoors. The Impact series were previously only available 
in Europe, but they're now getting a wider launch, so you can use them to add 
a dash of light and color to your yard. 

As Fabian of fan site Hueblog.com explains, the Philips Hue Impress series 
comprises three weather-resistant lights to brighten up your garden: the 
Impress Outdoor Wall Light, Impress Wide Outdoor Wall Light, and Impress 
Pedestal Light. 

All three are fitted with Philips Hue White & Color Ambiance bulbs, meaning 
you can set them to white light at a color temperature of your choice, or 
take your pick from 16 million RGB colors. You can use them on their own, or 
as part of a larger Hue setup. You can install the low-voltage Philips Hue 
Impress Pedestal Light anywhere in your yard using the spike on the bottom

The standard Impress Outdoor Wall Light (priced at $159.99) is the only one 
of the set that's designed to be hard-wired into the wall so there are no 
visible exterior cables. It contains two Hue White & Color Ambiance bulbs, 
and its case measures 9.4 x 6.1 x 5 inches. 

The Impress Wide Outdoor Wall Light ($179.99) is a low-voltage light that's 
designed to be easy to install and extend yourself without the help of an 
electrician. As the name suggests, it's the larger of the two wall-mounted 
fixtures, measuring 11.7 x 6.8 x 8 inches. 

The Impress Pedestal Light ($189.99) is another low-voltage unit that you can 
safely install yourself, and is held in place with a spike so you can 
position it anywhere you like outdoors. Its dimensions are 15.7 x 3.9 x 3.9 
inches. 

All three require a Philips Hue Bridge , which creates a mesh network that 
connects all your Hue lights, switches, sensors and cameras to your home 
Wi-Fi network, and to each other. You might also like See why we named the
