Review on πŸ’‘ Yeelight LED Candle Bulb Mesh, E14, 3.5W, 6500K by Felicja Krzywaska ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, more pros than cons.

I tried to connect it for more than 2 hours, then it dawned on me that I needed to change the region from 2022 to China, the lamp connected, but another "ambush" appeared with the China region - the ability to work with the Xiaomi Mi Smart Plug was lost. Why import a product into 2022 that does not provide for work with the 2022 region? Some kind of nonsense . there is no model for the 2022 region. I partially solved the problem: I returned to the 2022 region, the lamp connected perfectly in the Yeelight proprietary application (the region is unimportant), and it automatically connects to the Bluetooth Mesh gateway! But she did not appear in Mi Home. If the local Home Assistant server is used, the lamp is displayed and fully controlled there. After a few months of use, I increased the rating for these lamps - I have 2 pcs, they work well (a couple of times the distant lamp from the gateway lost connection)

Pros
  • It works acceptable, the base is E14, it shines quite brightly, it does not lose connection with the gateway.
Cons
  • Dancing with a tambourine on first connection (requires Bluetooth Mesh Gateway). Works with Mi Home only with the selected region China (don't take it if you can't change the region!). The price is clearly too high. There is a delay when adjusting the brightness (pauses are needed when adjusting)
