Review on ECOLOR Dimmable Changing Equivalent Multicolor by Ronnie Segobiano

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy to install and inexpensive, but no colors in the orange-yellow spectrum

I bought these bulbs to move around the house and to travel with. I didn't want to deal with the cloud and using WiFi. Bluetooth is a simple and direct connection to light bulbs. The app is easy to use but could do with some improvement when it comes to brightness control. The slider is useful for moving through a variety of brightness levels, but when it comes to fine-tuning (e.g. from 1% to 3%), the slider is tricky to use. Perhaps some switches in the UI would be welcome to allow finer control over brightness. Here's a disappointment with these lightbulbs. They don't seem to produce any colors close to orange on the color spectrum. Playing around with the color wheel and hue settings doesn't seem to work. I even went as far as setting one of my Lifx lightbulbs to orange and using the 'Camera Color' setting in the app, but the result still didn't match orange. Looked more green in color. While that doesn't stop me from using these lamps, I'm a bit disappointed that I can't reproduce the full visible spectrum of colors with them. Perhaps this problem can be solved programmatically. For your information, the lamp has a HW version. 1.00.00 and software ver. 1.00.25.

Pros
  • LED bulbs
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
