Thumbs Up for Philips Hue

How bright are the lamps? Do you think they're really equivalent to a 50w incandescent as claimed?
Maybe, just. I think it looks more like 40w if I have it on a solid yellow colour. On white (which has a blue tinge to it), it is more like the claimed 50w.I think I should have brought the white bulbs, multi colours seemed a good idea when buying a gadget maybe i'll use it more at Christmas.
Just added a Hue Tap switch to my system which negates having to find an iOS/android widget to fire up and control the lights. Man maths reduces the outlay to £12.48 per button.
The lack of a power source (no batteries) plays with my head. Uses some form of kinetic energy for each press to instantly activate the mode attached to the buttons. I assume its a Zigbee thing as I've never heard of a WiFi compliant device being able to do this.
