Review on 🏑 Govee Equivalent: Effortless Outdoor Lighting Automation by Draven Louton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

FREE OUTDOOR LIGHTS - FINALLY!

I bought these from Revain Specials. I'm tired of noticing that I forgot to turn off the porch light at lunchtime. Of course it's December now so I was lucky it was a 57 degree spring day and I cleaned the fixtures and installed the lightbulbs. The front porch had a spiral bulb with lots of moth and spider (yuk) debris. The back porch skylight is difficult to reach mid-staircase and requires a special strap wrench to remove the included glass bracket. So in the winter I decided to put the bulb in a lamp right on the porch, which is an enclosed sun room. I turned on the light switch for both and the bulbs went on for about 2 seconds and then went out. Now I waited for dawn and of course switched on both. By the time it got light it was a dark rainy day and it took longer than I expected to switch off around 45 minutes. longer than I would have done by hand. With low performance, there is nothing to worry about. I'm now greeted by lighted stairs when I leave the house during daytime shifts, and the best part is I never have to remember to turn them on and off like I've been doing for about 20 years.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Incredible piggy bank
