Color Temperature & Brightness Level of Philips Hue Scenes

Assuming we’re talking about the gen 3 A19 white and color ambiance bulb:

SceneColor temp (K)Brightness (lumens)
Relax2237~200*
Read2890~570
Concentrate4291~800
Energize6410~550

*The Relax scene is 56% brightness. Lumens calculated by multiplying brightness at 2000K (342 lm) by 0.56.

And then for the gen 3 A19 white only bulb:

SceneColor temp (K)Brightness (lumens)
Bright2700840
Dimmed2700~252**
Nightlight2700~84***

**Dimmed is 30% brightness. Lumens calculated by this formula: 840 x 0.30

***Nightlight is 1% brightness, but there is no difference in brightness below 10%. Lumens calculated by this formula: 840 x 0.10

How bright are Philips Hue light bulbs?

Philips Hue offers different ranges of brightness in its smart bulbs so that you can get the perfect amount of light for any room in your home. Use this guide to learn more about lumens and smart bulbs, how to convert from lumens to watts, and how to choose the right brightness.

What are lumens?

Lumens measure how much light the human eye can see coming from light source โ€” the brightness of a light bulb, for example. The higher the lumen rating, the brighter the light appears. This measurement is different from watts, which indicate the input power of a light bulb rather than its light output.

Model 1600 : Up to 1521 lumens

The brightest smart bulb from Philips Hue, this range comes in White, White ambiance, and White and color ambiance. Light up larger areas of your home, such as the garage or kitchen, with bright light for functional tasks, or dim down to set the mood. This range comes in standard A60/A19 bulbs with E26/E27 bases.

Looking for 100 W? If you want a bulb thatโ€™s as bright as a 100 W incandescent bulb, this is your pick.

Model 1100 : Up to 1055 lumens

This range offers powerful light in White, White ambiance, or White and color ambiance that fully illuminates medium-sized spaces, such as hallways โ€” yet can still be dimmed to a low glow. Youโ€™ll find this range in standard A60/A19 bulbs with E26/E27 bases. 

Looking for 75 W? When converting lumens to watts, this bulb is the equivalent to a 75 W bulb.

Model 800 : Up to 806 lumens

The most common Philips Hue brightness, the 800 range of Philips Hue bulbs are available in White, White ambiance, and White and color ambiance. You’ll see this in the standard shape (A60/A19) and base (E26/E27). 

Looking for 60 W? This bulb is equal to how many lumens are in an incandescent 60-watt bulb.

<<ERROR>>

Increase size for All in one plugin;

8-We need to increase restore size. Search for .htaccess file in your linux root file system;

# find / -type f -name .htaccess*

9-Use nano editor to open this file;

# nano .htaccess

place the following code in it after # END WordPress commentd line:

php_value upload_max_filesize 2048M
php_value post_max_size 2048M
php_value memory_limit 4096M
php_value max_execution_time 0
php_value max_input_time 0

10-Save file. Open plugin and you will see that you are allowed to restore 2GB data.

11-Open WordPress container site. Do a comparison with online site.

Congratulations! Youโ€™ve done it. You can now easily import any file youโ€™d like using this amazing plugin. Migrating your sites are not a hassle anymore!

Upgrade Debian from bullseye to bookworm and PVE7 to PVE8

Here is a short checklist to upgrade Debian to latest bookworm version;

Proxmox update goes with Debian Latest stable version. I am running BullEye and need to upgrade to BookWorm.

Run checklist (a small script that comes with Proxmox):

pve7to8

Fix errors and warnings reported by above script.

Next change repositories for Debian and Proxmos;

1. update the configured APT repositories
   apt update
   apt dist-upgrade
   pveversion

   This should report at least 7.4-15 or newer version.

2. CEPH
   nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list
   make sure there is just one entry.
	

3. Bulleye to BookWorm
   nano /etc/apt/sources.list
   or better, run this command to search and replace bullye to
   bookworm

   sed -i 's/bullseye/bookworm/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
   Output
   ------
   # security updates
   #deb http://security.debian.org bookworm-security main contrib

   # My repo changes
   deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm main contrib non-free
   deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bookworm-updates main non-free contrib
   # security updates
   deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bookworm-security main contrib non-free

   # PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
   # NOT recommended for production use
   deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve bookworm pve-no-subscription

4. APT Repositorys
   I don't have special repositories here. so don't worry about this.

Install this package if using EFI to boot box;

apt install grub-efi-amd64

To clear CEPH warnings, reset Ceph monitor on VM.

Remove any used packages with this command;

apt autoremove

Re-run scan;

pve7to8

Make sure to disable enterprise library if using evaluation version;

modify enterprise repo;

nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list

and add a # at the beginning. Save this file

Restart your nodes one by one.
