Zigbee Color A19 Smart Bulb

I have my own Raspberry Pi + Home assistant setup. It was super easy to add the device and get started with automation. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for Zigbee based home automation.

These are great lights. Good colors, good brightness, to a color-blind man these lights are equal to Hue bulbs. And they're far cheaper--I bought these colored bulbs to use as white bulbs because on Amazon Prime day they were cheaper in full color than the Hue White Ambiance bulbs.Now to the challenging part... Hue's system is well-developed and exceptionally versatile. It just works. You need the Hue Bridge, and you know that from the outset. With the bridge, lots can be done. Without the bridge, Hue bulbs are fairly crippled. Sengled Element bulbs run on the Zigbee protocol. Which means that you can use other hubs than the Sengled hub to control them. I own a Samsung Smartthings hub, and I was able to connect these bulbs to the Samsung hub, but the connection seemed wonky--taking time to work and not transferring fully to Google Home because, though Google Home works with Smartthings and Sengled bulbs, to work directly with Sengled Bulbs in Google Home you have to import the bulbs through a Sengled account which requires that the bulbs be registered with Sengled through their app, and that app only works when your Sengled bulbs are attached to a Sengled hub.So, after many attempts to get the Sengled Bulbs working with sunlight/sunset timers and color adjusters and as part of a group in Google Home, I gave up and bought a Sengled Hub in order to be able to register the bulbs with Sengled so I could import them directly into Google Home. To my surprise, however, it was no easier getting Google Home to work with Sengled bulbs registered to Sengled and attached to a Sengled hub.So, in the end, I decided to simply run the bulbs on a sunset to 12:30 AM schedule through the Sengled Home App, foregoing Google Home and Smartthings altogether, only to learn that the Sengled Home App doesn't include sunset and sunrise triggers. Crud. But, with further investigation, it became apparent that the Sengled app and hub do work with IFTTT, and IFTTT contains sunset and sunrise routines based on your GPS position for use with Sengled.It's a kludge. If you want to do more than very simple on-off routines, you won't find it easy to make Sengled bulbs work the way you want without trial and error and jury-rigging. But, work at it and you will probably get them to do what you desire if you're willing to forego integration into Smartthings or Google Home.The bulbs work well and you don't have to have the Sengled hub to get them under control if you want to work in Smartthings. But even with the Sengled hub, integration with Google Home can be a challenge.

These are just as good as the hue bulbs, for a substantially lower cost. They work great with my home assistant setup (using the SkyConnect Zigbee dongle), and required no messing-with to get working. My only complaint is that they're a bit pinkish-orange when dimmed and on the warmest color temperature setting - I'd say the hue bulbs get the 'dimmed incandescent light' vibe a bit better than these. However, anything above say 2700K, they're great, and as a white or color bulb they are just fine and dandy. I will be buying more of these for sure. My only complaint would be that I'd love to have a 100W equivalent not just 60W equivalent in terms of plain 'ol white light output - but as far as I can tell that product doesn't really exist in a color temp + RGB bulb. Oh well. We still live in amazing times, as far as mesh-network-connected color-changing light bulbs are concerned.

I wanted to get more Samsung bulbs when I switched routers. I have a SmartThings hub. But I think Samsung discontinued them, and they are about $20/bulb on line if you can find them. I got these instead and got 4 bulbs for $40. Yes...1/2 price. They were relatively easy to set up using first the hub, and then they seamlessly integrated with Alexa. I don't require many features for the bulbs. Just right light. DISCO! They work well. Would buy again, except they supposed last 30+ years! Good buy.

The media could not be loaded.  I love these light bulbs I recently installed 6 of'em in my house the other day. The setup was not bad or hard at all and it only took me less than an hour to set up. You have to use the application that comes with the light bulbs but it is less than 100 MB and you also have to set up an account which is free. It comes with the hub network cable USB adapter and 2 light bulbs which is the starter kit. Also just a reminder that these light bulbs only support 2.4 giga Hertz wireless and if you have 5 giga Hertz on your router then light bulbs will not work.I tried to set these up using the app on the phone to automatically search for the light bulbs but I had to manual search the light bulbs using the phone app which is easy all you have to do is scan the QR code. After you do that make sure the power is off unscrew the old light bulb then screw in the new light bulb, after that is done turn the light switch on for 20 seconds turn it back off for another 10 then after that turn it back on it will blink two times. The light bulb show up in the app that it's ready for use, then you will tell either your Alexa device or Google device to turn on light bulb.Also these bulbs only use less than 1.50 a year depending on how many hours a day you use them. The value for these bulbs at 57 dollars for 4 is very well worth it in the long run and you dont have to worry about going out and getting a new light bulb cause it went out.I give these light bulbs 4.7 out of 5 starsKeep up the good work Sengled

Si ya tienes un Hub marca Sengled esta es la mejor icono de comprar focos para seguir haciendo tu casa inteligente y llenar los demás cuartos con luces. Aproveche una muy buena oferta y no me decepcionaron.

MAKE SURE TO BUY A HUB ALONG WITH THIS!It was a little unclear by the description of the product and I thought I could use my Google home mini as a hub but no.When I got the hub these worked great with the Google home, colors are awesome, but they could be a little brighter. I prefer dimmer lighting so it's fine for me.Overall good color bulb, would recommend.

With my new Echo Plus all ready to go I was thinking "How can I ever afford to outfit my house with new bulbs" but this product made that possible, no only are they very well priced and affordable, they work perfectly.These lights are amazing ... they are very Alexa friendly with a nice warm white. There is some confusion in some of the Point of Sale material and advertising when they say the "Aren't dimmable" when in fact they are. What is meant is you can't use a dimmer switch to dim them but using their app or asking Alexa to dim them they will dim. We've been having some pretty cold weather here at night often as low as -28 C and I have a Philips Hue and a Sengled light outside and the Sengled lights work perfectly (the Philips Hue light at the very cold temperatures will randomly turn off or on) but I don't think either are rated for such temperatures.

(see update below)Why aren't these bulbs zigbee routers? As mains-powered devices I would have hoped they were! Bulb functionality itself works great (environment: USB zigbee stick, zigbee2mqtt, and openHAB). I much prefer zigbee (or zwave) to wifi for IoT devices.UPDATE: I have corrected my understanding. Light bulbs are often poor choices for routers in a zigbee mesh. E.g. sometimes a (physical) switch is turned off, or they are mounted deep in metallic fixtures which restricts their RF performance. A weak or intermittent router is worse than no router. Therefore, I increase my review to five stars. Just wish they were a bit cheaper!

Funcionan bien, son fáciles de configurar desde la app.El reto es que en casas de muros de block o ladrillo, la señal no llega lejos y requieres varios controladores.
