If you like the Trash can product, this might be for you!

Let me say that there are more than 20 smart lamps in my house. Some of them are better than others. This. This is by far the worst I have at the moment. Most devices can be connected via an app. They should use their own, no big deal right? I'm not the first group to do this. Except that their app is an absolute trash app. Half the time it won't connect to my router, then it won't connect to the light, then it won't connect to my Alexa. The app navigation is terrible too. So I would only give 1 star because of their app, but wait, that's not the only shitty thing. Let's talk about the installation. Needless to say, I have experience installing this type of lighting. It usually takes me 2 to 3 minutes to get them working with Alexa. So go ahead and install them and roughly speaking I have to use their app bins to install them. I'm starting to install the first bulb, I can't install. Trying to install again fails, so try another one, it will install. The fact is that I have them in the same outlet and after an unsuccessful installation I have to reset the light bulbs. So reset both bulbs, install one, it works. The second fails. Since I've installed several of these, I take out the installed bulb and put the other one back in and it eventually installs itself. So I screw in another bulb and the app sees everything. Everything works in the application. So, I connect it to Alexa, Alexa sees both devices. I think it's great! Tell Alexa to turn off the light and only one will turn off. Go to my Alexa app and it shows one bulb is not responding, go to Meross app and both bulbs are working. Go back to Alexa and still nothing. After that I gave up. Don't buy this. Your app sucks. The lightbulbs themselves may be fine, but the interface has many problems. I made a mistake buying them. I will replace and order a kit that I trust.

Pros
  • Schedules & Energy Saving: You can set schedules (timers) to turn on/off the smart light automatically according to your daily routine. Sunrise/Sunset mode supported. Using just 9 watts of electricity, which is equivalent to the brightness of a 60 watt incandescent light bulb, saves up to $8.19 per year.
