Candelabra Smart Bulbs 60W Work with Alexa/Google Home, 6PCS

UPDATE: After writing my original review, I turned off the time schedule for each bulb only to find each light on the following morning. These bulbs' programming are seriously buggy. My Kasa smart bulbs are much more reliable and follow their set schedule as specified. Additional Update: I've been using these bulbs for well over a year now and they have become more reliable. In addition, the problem I originally experienced was immediately addressed by the company. They were kind, communicative, and provided ample detail to walk me through the issue ensuring its resolution. I've had little to no issues with these bulbs since. Highly recommend. These lights were a bit of a hassle to set up. They would connect to the Internet and then disconnect themselves and more often than not, I'd have to remove the device from the app completely and start the connection process over again from scratch. They finally seem to be staying connected but now they're randomly turning on all by themselves. Wtf, creepy!!! I set up a schedule for the lights to turn on and off at certain times throughout the week. Well, apparently these lights have a mind of their own. Schedule be damned!! For example, I randomly awoke at 2AM this morning to find several of my smart, candlestick bulbs on. So, naturally I looked at the schedule to ensure they were programmed correctly and *gasp* they were. Not OK!! Thus prompting me to write this review. I know they turned off when they were scheduled to go off because I watched this happen so they're just randomly turning back on. This strange phenomenon has occurred more than once as witnessed by one of my other house dwellers as well. In summation, none of the bulbs I have installed correctly follow the schedule or plan that I have set up for them. So time wasted on that front making the bulb at least 50% useless since, for me, having a schedule was half the reason - if not most of the reason - why I purchased "smart" lights to begin with.

Amazing they are bright works great with Alexa easy to install they adjust brightness and colors not sure how long they last yet

These little guys are pretty bright for there size and are easy to set up. The colors are bright and vibrant. My kids love changing the color of them. I bought them because I was looking too control my lights with Alexa and I am suprised at how well they worked. It was simple and straightforward. You use them with smartlife first and then you can connect them to Alexa. They are on the pricey side but still cheaper than most others. But I found them to be worth it. I absolutely recommend them.

I bought 2 four packs for a chandelier that holds 8 bulbs, 1 started flashing after a year and would not connect to the wifi anymore. Eventually the bulb would not turn on anymore. The other 7 are working great.

These multifunction bulbs work very well in my bedroom ceiling fan to provide dimming and smart switching capability. They've been running for about 15 months now without any issues, no disconnects or headaches. I'm happy I found these as they're a bargain compared to how expensive the name brand smart bulbs are. Bulbs are super duper bright - I typically run all four at 10% brightness for day to day lighting. Two bulbs off and two bulbs at 5% keeps the room softly lit. I've got these scheduled to turn on in the morning to help me wake up, then they turn off after I've left for work, and turn back on again as I'm on my way home for the evening. It's very convenient once configured.

Smart lightbulbs are great for a while, until you start realising that flicking the switch at the door is much easier than "smart" methods of turning room lights on/off. The variable colors are cool, the dimming is cool but it's still about manually messing about with an app or talking to your smart hub versus toggling a switch and the switch is smarter by a mile. The closest smart lightbulbs come to the toggle switch simplicity is if you also use a smart hub that can use something like ultrasound to detect the room has someone in it or is empty and just leave the smart hub to turn the lights on/off when the room is populated/empty. That's not 100% reliable and can turn the lights off when you are in the room and putting an Alexa device having ultrasound detection or equivalent in every room just to avoid toggling the switch at the door makes smart bulbs seem a lot less smart than they claim. I also find them really unreliable, each month I have to reset and re-install one or two. Then, all but the most recent wifi connection points don't support many simultaneous connected devices, I have over thirty lights on each floor of my house. I admit, having the lights dimmed to the lowest level when I go to bed is good for winding down but I doubt the claimed 1% brightness level is honest, if I ever put a light meter in a room and measure the difference between light energy at different dimmer levels I'll be sure to update my post.

I LOVE these lights. I have them installed in every room, and the smart hub app allows me to control the lights in each room. The installation and set up is so easy. I love being able to dim my living room to this soft amber color that is just bright enough to make it cozy. Love these.

These would have been fine if not for the constant pairing troubles and disconnects. No matter how many times I pair the bulbs, they eventually randomly disconnect themselves, so when I turn on the light switch they obnoxiously blink on and off. Just give me a subtle brightness change to alert me of required pairing, no need for the dancle club strobe light effect. That part obviously wouldn't bother me if the lights didn't disconnect themselves entirely at random. I have multiple Govee products and have not had a single pairing issue, the whole platform just works. I bought "Lightinginside" at the time because Govee didn't offer the slim E12 bulbs for ceiling fans. They do now, so I would personally spend the $35 on those instead of this brand. The app is not well optimized, and I have used a variety of phone generations between Android and iOS. I just get riddled with popups about making an account and unnecessary permissions. I can at least tolerate having one app for a known brand ecosystem like Govee products, but these random developers need to understand that we don't want to share privacy permissions with random unknown companies. I can tolerate option to control the lights via BT locally, no account etc but don't expect us to create an account and give up privacy permissions just to access the product. The lights have not had physical defects and continue to work over the past 1-2 years, it's just the broken pairing and app optimization/privacy permissions that is no fun.

Mon achat au tout début m'a énormément causé des Frustrations puisque le fonctionnement des lumières n'étaient pas optimales pour créer des scènes, une programmation. Les lumières répondaient vocalement seule à Alexa allumé toutes les lumières. Je ne pouvais pas faire allumer ou éteindre les lumières par groupe d'ampoules. J'ai contacté le service à la clientèle de Lightinginside et avec leur compréhension de la situation, avec leur gentillesse et leur patience, la compagnie lightinginside m'a aidé à résoudre ma problématique. L'application Smart Life enregistré les lumières mais les ampoules fonctionnent qu'avec l'application Alexa . Ce qui m'a permis dans l'application Alexa de créer les programmations, scènes et skills. La luminosité des ampoules est superbe La qualité/prix est avantageuse Le service à la clientèle est rapide à vouloir aider et trouver une solution écrite et aussi par envois d'images de références. Je recommande fortement les ampoules intelligentes lightinside

I've tried 2 or 3 different brands of smart bulbs. These ones were installed and recognized by Alexa. Hoping that they don't mess up.

Très peu de modèles E12 de ce genre. Bon éclairage et facile à configurer

Apparence neutre blanc quand éteinte, bulbe de lumière un peu plus gros qu'habituel. l'application Smart life les a retrouvés instantanément, facile a programmer, 2 écrans différent pour ajuster les différents blancs et les différentes couleurs, (changement d'écran au glissement de doigt, je l'ai un peu cherché). Pour la variation d'intensité , diminue un peu moins qu'un variateur ordinaire même quand indique 0%. Répond bien a Alexa, on peut en plus d'allumer éteindre, demander changement de couleur et varier l'intensité vocalement. J'ai découvert que quand on a des lumières multiples sur une même switch comme par exemple des appliques murales sur un mur, Même si je fais un groupe pour commander toutes les lumières en même temps avec Alexa, une seule s'allume, je doit les nommer individuellement. ou passer par l'application smart life. Mais par contre, on a les avantages de l'inverse, parfois sur mon ilot je n'ai dans les faits besoin que d'une lumière, au dessus du lavabo, je peux désormais n'allumer que celle là quand je le souhaite, ce que ne ne pouvais faire avant avec une prise ordinaire. Donc je peux fonctionner avec ce petit problème. Très heureuse de mon expérience avec ces lumières, mais ne peut me prononcer quant à leur durabilité pour le moment.
