Wafer-style smart recessed lights replace the whole can and sit almost flush with the ceiling, so they suit new installs and remodels. Smart bulbs or retrofit downlights suit existing cans.
The lights hold the smarts, so keep the wall switch on or replace it with a smart switch that supports smart bulbs. Wiring a dimmer in front of smart lights can cause flicker.
Wi-Fi lights connect straight to your router. Hue fixtures need the Hue Bridge.
