Can I just plug it in? Hue outdoor lights

[smccran]

Hi all,

I've picked up a pair of these: Hue White and Colour Ambiance Nyro Outdoor pedestal | Philips Hue - https://www.philips-hue.com/en-gb/p/hue-white-and-colour-ambiance-nyro-outdoor-pedestal/1745530P7

Hue Nyro, Pedestal lights. The instructions state that they want to be mains wired into the house. Right now, I want to test them, and setup indoors. Can I fit a regular plug to a cable and just plug them in?

Is there any difference between these being wired directly into the mains, or plugged in. (the model does not use a Hue power adaptor of any type.)

Thanks
Shaun

Nothing to stop you as long as the fuse and cable are of the correct rating.

That was my plan, wire it up with a 3amp plug and plug it in. I couldn't think of any reason why it wouldn't work, but there's almost nothing out there on messing with the Hue stuff.
