Hue's low-voltage pathway bollard, a proper fixed fitting for paths and drives rather than a stake in the lawn. It runs on Zigbee through a Bridge, so Home Assistant sees it as a normal Hue colour light and control is local. Amazon UK lists the large black version as the 'Calla Outdoor Pedestal Light', which is the same Calla range. It's a base unit; extension units are sold separately and need the Hue outdoor power supply, so a long path is a real budget item. Cost per light is high compared with Govee stakes.
What can Home Assistant control on the Philips Hue Calla Outdoor Bollard?
Appears in the hue integration as a colour light once the outdoor power supply is paired to the Bridge. The extension units are not separate Zigbee devices; they hang off the base and share its control.
