Does anyone have a wiser system in their house. We're having it in our new build and have a few of the light switches attached to it at this point. Any suggestions on what else to integrate would be appreciated. Do you need a hue bridge as well to control Phillips hue lights, or can the wiser system do this without it? Sorry for the noob question... Thanks.

Hello,
For the moment, you can't pair Phillips hue lights with Wiser. We are working on introducing this new feature to Wiser app.
Thanks,

@Alfred_SE Philips Hue does integrate with the "Wiser Energy Home Monitor" has has for many years. Through you are correct that Hue is not compatible with the dozens of "Wiser Home" apps.
With names like "Wiser Energy" and "Wiser Home" I can understand why there is no much confusion
"Wiser Energy Home Monitor" is a rebranded "Sense Energy monitor" manufactured, operated and well supported by Sense (Sense.com).
"Wiser Home" is a series of apps for Schneider Smart products. There are about a dozen versions of the Schneider "Wiser Home" app and only specific versions work with specific products.
For example the Schneider X series line of switches and plugs with energy monitoring only work with one specific version of the "Wiser Home" app. The version numbers are non sequential. Meaning the newer version of the "Wiser Home" app which is compatible with the "X Series" has a lower version number then older "Wiser Home" versions of the app with higher version numbers. Also to be noted Some long discontinued Schneider products that also use "Wiser Home" app and are not supported by newer versions. Not to mention different apps with the same name for different regional locations.
Schneider really needs to sort out this mess of apps and products all using the same name but completely incompatible.
This is EXTREMELY confusing for end users. Schneider in house (phone and messaging) support can't figure it out with apps work with what products either and has no explanation for the geniuses who came up with the naming strategy.

@Alfred_SE / Anyone.... are there any news at all on this...
While you are 'still' working on introducing this new feature, do you mind sharing a few details on the beta feature where I see the Philips Hue Bridge is listed.
