The short version
The Hue Play Light Bar double pack includes two white-and-color bars and a shared power supply that can drive up to three lights. Each bar outputs 500 lumens across a 2000 to 6500 K white range plus full color, and can stand upright, lie flat or mount behind a TV with the included hardware. A Hue Bridge is required, and syncing to a screen needs a Hue sync box or the Sync TV app, which raises the total cost well beyond the bars themselves.
