Low cost Zigbee GU10s via Ikea (UK) (www.ikea.com)

For those of you in the UK, IKEA currently has a steep discount on their GU10 bulbs. I've just picked up several dimmable, colour temperature controlled bulbs for £5 each.

They play nicely with HA via a sonoff dongle and ZigBee2MQTT, even down to firmware updates.

Bulbs don't usually work well as repeaters anyway. Their smart plugs tend to work well, although I wish they had power monitoring support.

The aqara plugs do have power monitoring but afaik it's borked with ZHA unless you write your own quirks file....
