Trying to add some outdoor lighting and am a little confused. Do I need a Zigbee stick if I get the Hue Bridge?

No announcement yet.
Is a Hue Bridge required, or can I run Hue lighting on HS4 with a Zigbee stick?

The body of the message asks if you need a zigbee stick if you have a Hue bridge. No, you do not.
Personally, Do yourself a favor and get a bridge for use with Hue lighting. There's certain features of Hue lighting that only work with their bridge.
