A:AnswerYes; however, you must have a module on each switch location. I have them installed in 2-, 3-, and 4-way switch locations and they work great. The key is that you must connect all the circuits together so it's a "homerun" to each of the fixtures. This will mean all the fixtures are powered 100% of the time and the wall module is "talking" to the Hue lights directly to turn them On/Off.
While the circuit is powered 100% of the time, that doesn't mean full power is being drawn constantly. If the lights are turned "off" then its only the marginal standby current being used. We have several of these installed contolling numerous lights and our electric bill hasn't been affected enough to notice.
A:AnswerOnly one module comes in the box. My husband handles the set up for all of this smart house stuff lol but he uses the app for all the functions. He set a function to party mode so our lights turn purple and Alexa turns on In Da Club.
A:AnswerIf you can operate the fan with the remote and can leave the wall switch in the on position than the Hue bulb should work without the need for the Hue switch. The Hue switch is only necessary if you need to be able to remotely control the wall switch.
A:AnswerThey must be compatible Phillips Hue components. I don't believe the dimmer switch would work with this since they essentials would be "working against each other" and I'm not sure how they would both connect to the same light(s). So my best guess would be that it is either the Philips Hue dimmer switch OR this module for the same lights, but could control different lights with the module on one area and the dimmer on another.
A:AnswerIf your Hue controller is accessible outside your home network then yes. I have weird internet and don't get assigned an "external IP" from AT&T so I cannot access my Hue system unless on my home wi-fi network.
