Review on πŸ”Œ Sengled Changing Assistant: The Essential Industrial Electrical Equivalent by Todd Calloway

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I will not play with the SmartThings app!

Does not work with SmartThings, although these bulbs are advertised as working. I bought two packs to hang a light in the kids room so I can turn it off via the SmartThings app if the kids pass out and forget to turn off the light. First I created a Sengled account as it forces you to do so. I did this using a computer to make account creation easier. They then force you to download the Sengled app, although I have no intention of using it. Then I login and it tells me that I can't use the protocol I created on the computer and I need to create a login to use it in the application. Serious! So I create another account for the app. Plug in the light and it works through their app. I will add it to my SmartThings account where I have about 100 other devices and automations set up. I always get the error! I've tried over and over again and keep getting road hurdles. After 2 hours of fiddling around, these pears are back. I've never had to create another account to add one of my other lights or switches from two different manufacturers. This "integration" from Sengled is terrible!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
