In this video we'll look at unboxing and setting up the LifX Z Light Strip to work with the Apple Homekit Smart Home Ecosystem. We'll go through a setup of the LifX light to connect it to your home wifi network, as well as a tour of the LifX and Apple Home apps specifically to control the LifX Light Strip.

Too see the LIFZ LED Lightstrip in action being used to help you wake up to the gradual light of a beautiful sunrise, check out my video here.
