What the Kit Includes
The Perifo L-shaped wall base kit is a track lighting system designed for wall mounting. It includes two cylinder spotlights, three 39.4 inch rails, a power supply unit (PSU) with a plug for a wall outlet, and connectors to create an L shape. The kit is available in two color variants: white (product ID 208492) and black (product ID 208468). The white kit creates an L shape that turns to the right, while the black kit turns to the left.
Before you connect the kit to your smart home, it's important to understand what's in the box. The PSU plugs into a standard wall outlet, so no mains wiring is required. The rails and connectors allow you to form the L shape, and the spotlights are already compatible with the Philips Hue ecosystem.
Connecting the Kit to Your Philips Hue Smart Home
Follow these steps to connect your Perifo L-shaped wall base kit to your Philips Hue smart home system. The process assumes you already have a Philips Hue Bridge and the Hue app installed.
- Install the Kit: Assemble the rails and connectors into the desired L shape according to the kit's instructions. Mount the track to the wall using appropriate hardware (not included). Plug the PSU into a wall outlet.
- Power On and Pair: Turn on the wall switch to power the kit. The spotlights should light up. Open the Philips Hue app and go to the 'Settings' tab. Tap 'Add lights' and the app will search for new devices. The spotlights should appear as 'Perifo Spot' or similar.
- Assign to Rooms and Zones: Once discovered, assign each spotlight to a room (e.g., 'Kitchen') and zone (e.g., 'Counter'). You can control them individually or as a group. The app allows you to adjust brightness, color temperature, and set routines.

Smart Control Features
Once connected, each spotlight becomes a smart device controllable via the Hue app, voice assistants (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit), and automations. You can set schedules, adjust color temperature from warm to cool white, and integrate with other Hue lights in your home.
The supplied catalog information does not specify whether the spotlights support color-changing RGB or only white ambiance. For precise capabilities, refer to the product packaging or Philips Hue support. This means you can confidently use basic smart features like dimming and scheduling, but advanced color effects may not be available.
Things to Consider Before You Start
The kit requires a Hue Bridge to enable full smart home features. Without a Bridge, the lights will still work as standard dimmable lights when connected to a wall switch, but you won't get app control or automation. The Bridge is sold separately.
The PSU plugs into a wall outlet, so make sure there is an accessible outlet near your intended mounting location. The kit does not include mounting screws or wall anchors; you will need to supply those based on your wall type. The supplied instructions do not specify maximum load or weight limits for the track; ensure your wall can support the assembled kit.
