Bright plus fun colors!

These lights came in my bedroom (I actually have two) and they work well. They are very bright and I love that you can change the colors using the Apple Home app! The only thing I will say is a bit disappointing is the color accuracy but I can see how difficult it will be in any light. It is said to be able to reproduce a million colors but they are not very well defined. It's still possible to get whatever you want, and I love that the colors you can choose from are a color wheel to navigate…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Non-Automatic

Nearly perfect! for incandescent lamps

I am gradually adding smart devices to my home. Being closely connected to the Apple ecosystem, I've been trying to make my devices compatible with Apple HomeKit. Unfortunately, this hasn't always been easy as the number of devices is much more limited than those that connect to Alexa or Google Home. I found this lightbulb and decided to give it a try. That's twice the price of lightbulbs that work with Alexa and Google Home. The function of the lamp is excellent. Adding with HomeKit is as easy

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.

You connect to Homekit. Read the instructions below!

Summary: I bought a couple of bulbs as stock deals for about $12 each, which is an absolutely ridiculous price for Homekit colored smart bulbs. They don't interact well with the Homekit color wheel, but Siri can give them the correct colors on request, and the regular FEIT Electro app colors can do the same. They have a large lag when triggered, turned off, or generally changed. They don't work with any dimmer I can find and they work with a home kit. Despite complaints, they WILL connect. But…

Pros
  • Change Price
