Everything you need to know
The Play light bar extension pack adds one more bar to an existing Play setup. It runs the same White and colour ambiance light, 2000K to 6500K plus full colour, but it does not include a power supply. It plugs into a spare port on a Play power supply you already have, which is why it needs the base single or double pack, not a first-time buy on its own.
Product features
Adds one bar to a setup
This is a single bar meant to join Play bars you already run, not a first-time buy. At 500 lumens it matches the rest of the range. Use it to widen the light behind a large TV or to reach a second surface nearby.
ChromaSync
Sixteen million colours and every shade of warm-to-cool white, tuned as one. Blend several colours along a single light and shift the whole scene at once, so a room moves from a bright morning white to a warm evening wash without setting each light on its own.
- 16 million colours
- Warm to cool tunable white
- Gradient blends across one light
- Scene-wide control in the Hue app
Follows the picture
The light matches what's on screen in real time, so a green field or a sunset carries onto the wall behind the panel. To make it track the picture you need a Hue Bridge, plus either a Hue Play HDMI Sync Box or the Sync TV app on a supported TV. Without them it holds a fixed colour.
- Colour follows what's on screen
- Needs a Hue Bridge
- Plus a Play HDMI Sync Box or the Sync TV app
Plugs into your Play supply
The extension pack has no power supply of its own. It plugs into a spare port on a Play supply you already own, and one supply runs up to three bars, so you need the base single or double pack and a free port to use it.
The Philips Hue system
Hue is a system, not just a smart bulb. Every Hue product, from bulbs and lamps to light strips and fixtures, joins the same Zigbee mesh and shows up in one app. A single bulb bought today slots straight into a whole-home setup later.
Bulbs, lamps, strips & fixtures
All speak Zigbee and mesh with each other, so every light you add extends the network's reach.
One Bridge runs the whole home
Runs up to 50 lights off your router, and connects Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings.
App, voice & switches
One app for rooms, scenes and schedules, plus dimmers, buttons and sensors that work without a phone.
Start with one light Start here
Add your first Hue light, open the Hue app, and control up to 10 lights in one room over Bluetooth. No hub required.
Add the Hue Bridge When you're ready
Run up to 50 lights, control them from anywhere, set schedules and automations, and connect your voice assistant.
Start small, scale up. Everything you buy today keeps working when you add the Bridge, and everything Hue has made since 2012 still joins the same system.

Works with Matter
Also works with Matter, so it can join other Matter platforms as well as the ones above.
Your phone reaches the hub over your home network; the hub speaks Zigbee to the device, and adds scenes, automations and out-of-home control.

Common questions

No. It has no power supply and plugs into a Play power supply from a single or double pack. You need the base Play bars and a spare port for it to work.
No. That is the difference from the single and double packs. It draws power from a Play supply you already own, which runs up to three bars in total.
One Play power supply runs up to three bars. If your supply already runs two, this extension fills the third slot; beyond that you need another supply.
For colour and on/off it works over Bluetooth like the other bars. Scenes, automations and screen sync need the Bridge, as with any Play bar.
The same as the rest of the Play range: White and colour ambiance, 2000K to 6500K plus full colour, at 500 lumens.
