What they don't talk about

Product works great. But, and a big BUT I'd like to know before I buy any new product line, and all from GE. Currently new wireless products can't connect to your c-reach, so you'll need to take any bulb you want to use with any of the wireless devices from your c-reach setting in the app (that is, from HomeKit, as it only supports c by GE is a product that connects to HomeKit) and with its own "location" in the c by GE app. A major pain, especially if you've had and have had a full HomeKit install exclusively for GE's C products. The icing on the cake: Since Savant announced its purchase of GE Lighting, I've had little to no feedback on new wireless devices or my own issues with recent failed firmware updates. I'm sure they'll eventually make it, but for now I'm stuck in the smart home mush.
