What You Need to Know

Well packaged. 1C did not come back. The other 2 were broken. This isn't the first time I've bought and installed these lamps. But 1st time sends back lolInstall: You should already install or are installing 5/6 inch can lamps. Light installation is easy. screw in the object. (Turn off) Now with light on, the flat wings stay open for 6 inches. But I'm telling you, since the lights may not be exactly the same size, you may need to make some adjustments. So for me 5 inches and was told to put the fender 1/2 way. Well I had to open it wider so the slit was visible to fit my glass. Not too difficult. On order. Push the metal wings up and in and twist them slightly in the opposite direction. . Should be comfortable. if not pull down to open a little more. Mine worked fine and was easy to set up. But if you have a problem, use the hue app to find it first. and name it Then using your smart device. Make sure your bluetooth is activated in your phone. included. I have the option to use Alexa or my Hue app. Advice. Don't turn it off in the hue app if you primarily use voice control. You may receive a device that is not responding. Go to the Hue app and turn it on, then the voice will answer. Also, make sure you leave the switch on. Smart devices need to turn on the switch to work properly. Yes, I have a Hue hub. and it's easy to use. plug in and go. One more thing about the hue app: you can upgrade your lightbulbs and hub. I recommend you do this as soon as possible. especially if your voice control is buggy. You need to keep the lights or lights on during the update and this may take a while. But for me it worked with a lamp A 19. Overall I like the light. I can dim it and make it brighter as needed. Even energy saving. The Hue Hub and app allow for more ranges of white and soft white. I have the perfect backdrop for movie night and in my kitchen when chopping veggies. or clear light metering to see the best. Or just set 1 light in the kitchen low and soft as a night light or a drink on movie night. Love, then you can say
