Questions about Philips Hue White & Color Ambiance Datura

The Philips Hue White & Colour Ambiance Datura offers indirect lighting that can be used both as a design feature and to create a pleasant lighting atmosphere. The light has two independently controllable light sources that provide both direct and indirect lighting. You can set the lighting so that only the backlighting is activated to create a soft atmosphere.

You can control the entire lamp (top and bottom) at the same time with one light switch. It is listed as 1 lamp in the app, but both lights can be set individually.

The thing has over 5000 lumens... that's easily enough for 23 square metres

The Hue app has recognised 2 lamps for me. Have they both been connected?

I don't think Philips give any recommendations because the installation depends more on your ceiling than on the lamp... The Datura is heavy, very heavy, for a lamp, but 4kg isn't much for a screw suitable for the ceiling. I also have a concrete ceiling, so I used two 4.5x35mm screws with 5x25mm plugs. Depending on the size of the heads, a washer may be necessary.

For the Philips Hue "White & Color Ambiance Datura (3840 lm)" lamp, here are the details you need: - Lamp diameter: The round version of the Datura lamp has a diameter of 38.4 centimetres. - Ceiling space required: Since the lamp has a diameter of 38.4 centimetres, you will need a corresponding space on the ceiling. It won't be possible to install it on a base with a diameter of 21 cm, because the diameter of the Datura lamp is significantly larger (38.4 cm) than the base you mentioned. You would need a base or installation surface that matches the diameter of the lamp for a safe and correct installation.

Yes, that works. There are two controllers and two lamps in it. You can control each one individually in the app. They are recognised as two (separate) lamps!
