1. Get a Zigbee USB adapter (e.g. SONOFF's is great)
2. Get a Raspberry Pi Zero W
3. Install mosquitto and zigbee2mqtt.
4. Enroll your devices and schedule them using bash scripts and cron.
There was no way I was going to be paying Phillips for one of their shitty bridges or hubs after they intentionally gimped their Bluetooth control in order to force you to need one and then rugpulled everyone about not needing to register and log into the app. Dirty business. I'll never buy anything from them again.
The above took just an afternoon. Zigbee2mqtt documentation is great.
