LVWIT Wi-Fi Smart Light Bulb Alexa, BR30 Smart LED, Work with Google Assistant, Smart Life App, Tuya App, 60W Equivalent, RGB Color Changing Light Bulbs (8.5W), No Hub Required, 2-Pack

I've purchased several of these smart bulbs from multiple vendors for a very long time - and by far this is probably the BRIGHTEST of all - almost as bright as a Non-Smart Philips traditional LED bulbs.There are a few times, the (some) bulbs won't respond to ALEXA (turning off) or takes several seconds to do so. And sometimes - if you manually turn OFF and ON the switch - non of the bulbs won't respond. It requires at least a 3-4 seconds between OFF / ON operations.Other these two quirks, I find them really awesome and am planning to buy more of these.

I bought this for can lighting clusters (group of multiple can lights controlled by a single switch) in my house. I actually have 3 clusters (kitchen, master, living room).I had previous bought a different brand, I had to replace with these, which worked better.There appears to be an issue I am having with the can clusters where the power can become intermittent on off every month or 2. This causes the lights to go into PAIRING MODE.The issue with the previous brand I had there been no way to get out of it unless you re-import into your Smart Life app. This was bit of a pain each time it happened.However, with these brands, when it occurs and goes into pairing mode, you just turn off the lights for a few seconds, turn it back on and it gets out of pairing mode. So, I ended up replacing all my lights with these. Was quiet expensive given how many lights I had.Generally speaking, I am very happy with these lights. There is one odd issue though.When there is a cluster of 4 lights, it works fine.When you go up over that (like 6 and 8 in my case), the dim does not work right unless you leave 1 light at close to max brightness. What will happen is all the lights will flicker until you raise the brightness on one of them to the max. I guess the flickering is to notify that there is an issue (or pairing mode perhaps I'm not sure).I would have liked to not have to have 1 can light at super high brightness so entire room can dim low properly. But I'm happy with it overall. I don't know if the weird issue is with the bulb or the wiring in my house causing this condition. It would be interesting to see what others post. Maybe I will upgrade in a few years to see if there is something better.On energy efficiency, I'm not sure, but our energy bill did go up quite a bit. I don't know if the wireless communication is taking extra wattage. I will wait and see and update the review.

I was very excited about these bulbs initially. Having the ability to control them near or afar was the plan. Now I'm thinking that they are just a waste of money. They hardly respond to the app or to Alexa with whom I have them linked. I could give a command and one out of two lamps in the same fixture may respond saying that I'm out of range. How when the are literally right beside each other. The app had updated several times to address issues but evidently it isn't addressing the right issues. I purchased almost 30 variations of these lamps but never again.

Bought 4 of these less than a year ago and they were easy to install but a little difficult to get themConnected to my Alexa. Took a little bit to figure things out. Unfortunately one of the light quit working 3 months later. I tried to contact the company and never got a response back. I ended up having to buy two more lights (pack of two) and replace the one that wasn’t working. I didn’t want to have one light that was a different brand. The other three lights have worked great since the first time I purchased them. The new one seems to be working so far.

Many nice features. Schedule, color change, power level, warm/cool (kelvin). I have a total of 8 bulbs now. Easy to control as individual or groups.

These are excellent bulbs! I bought 10 total and had 1 that would not connect to WiFi app (Tuya). I contacted customer service, sent a pic of the bulb model #, and they promptly sent me two more to replace the 1. Excellent customer service! I will buy more of these!

Brightness, consistency and reliability have been very good. Work well with my Google Home setup, but the app they require isn't as good as let's say Hue. Color tones not as good as newer Hue lights, but cost is a lot better.

I wanted an RGB WiFi bulb with high Lumens. The last 2 sets I used at 100% we're not bright enough. These state 1300 Lumens I was hopping for 800-900. They are so bright using off white or pure white I have to lower them to 20% brightness in the app.... Great bulbs!!!

I have installed six of these lights mainly on the perimeter of the garage and walkway to the front entrance. The ability to dim, change the light colour and set up dusk to dawn makes this perfect for our needs. Set up was not difficult if you have good wifi coverage. Tuya app works great. Recommended. We have 2.4ghz lights and 5ghz cameras on the same lighting circuit and all is working well.

Summary (Updated 06-13-2022):- Connectivity: 9/10- Brightness: 8/10- App: 7/10 [FYI: You can use Tuya or Smart Life interchangeably - and these underwrite many other skinned apps too, all of which will still work. I suggest using the two listed here, however]- Assistant Compatibility: 10/10[04/21/2022] Still have not encountered a single disconnect. Seems connectivity is rock-solid reliable.[05/11/2022] Some hiccups, but I suspect this has more to do with wifi congestion than any failing on their part. Still far and away more consistent connectivity than any non-Tuya/Smart Life bulb I've tried.[06/13/2022] It has only been when my wifi has legitimately cut on other devices too. Hopefully your router is better than mine, but even then - the connectivity on these is ROCK SOLID. I assure you, buying in this product sector, that will come to be very important for you. Many of these lights simply cannot or do not stay properly connected. But you've found one that will.[05-29-2023] Last update, to make my point: the connection with these guys is rock solid. If you're sick of lights that will disconnect on you or randomly fail with your assistant speaker, consider these. Or at least stuff supported by Smart Life/Tuya. It's the best connection I've found on purely-wifi based bulbs.-----So, the description will give you all the detail you need to determine if you like the featureset.However, I've generally found it hard to visualize brightness based on numbers. How bright are these? Here's a description to help you place it:They're bright enough for fine work such as drawing or repair from over+behind the back without casting a problematic shadow. With two of them in standard recessed receptacles, my bedroom is well-lit. I'd say they're probably equal to a typical incandescent at about 55% of their max brightness.One thing you should note, and this will spare you time as you look: the brightest by far on any of these W+RGB bulbs is always daylight-white (think sterile clinic lighting). The colours will always be a fair bit darker.In terms of connectivity:I've only had them for a few days, but they seem to be holding up just fine. Note: they will only function on 2.4ghz wifi.They're backed by Tuya (Smart Life), a massive cloud provider in China. It shows, the infrastructure rarely fails.My experience with all of the products I've had that were backed by this platform (many rebrand it for their app) is I have not lost connection once. This includes api integrations with Google Assistant/Home, Alexa, and IFTTT.That alone is worth quite a bit - until you get into the very expensive brand name bulbs, connectivity is awful for most. Wiz is totally dysfunctional (don't let the Phillips branding fool you). Xiaomi Yeelight is okay. I haven't tried offers like Sengled or Zigbee-based ones.If you have a lot going one in your network - Zigbee is the way to go - but it does require compatible lights and a separate hub.----Other random bits that may prove useful:- If you're used to prior smart light products, when asking via assistants, it doesn't handle "compound commands" super well. Ask for each change separately.- Percentage brightness, unlike many lights, does not imply on/off via assistant commands. Gotta ask explicitly. The state you establish is noted though. (ie, "off", "set light blue", "on" -> light is blue)- Even if you're not taken with this offering, if you want cheap Wifi bulbs - stick to Tuya/Smart Life backed ones. They're far and away better than any other supporting provider for the bulb's remote functionality than any other I've seen for off-brand.- If you have the dough... just get Phillips Hue w/ the gateway and the risks are moot. They're top end for a reason.But, I toil with my cheap-hearted brethren, so I hope this helps you get something good without purging your wallet.

Super funcional, instalación del foco como cualquier otro y la aplicación para controlarlo y maximizar su funcionalidad es muy amigable. Muy recomendables.

Very pleased, they look/feel to be very well made with good materials, lights worked as advertised right away. Setup process was simple, we are using the Tuya Smart app for iOS, very easy to configure and use - had it all up and running quickly. Lights are great, colour (edit: "color" if you're American) is configurable to basically any colour in the rainbow that you want, we are very happy with the quality of light & colour they emit. We prefer warm tones - and these deliver beautifully - but if you want they can also emit really cold/harsh/bright light if that's what you're after. The app makes it easy to change from warm tones to cooler ones. They can dim to very *very* low levels (fainter than candlelight) or be quite bright - or any level in between, which is probably the feature I'm most pleased with. Nice to be able to group sets of lights together and control them as a group with one command. These met our expectations in every way, would recommend, 5-stars for sure.

I've purchased 14 of these and they work great except for about 4 of them have a hard time communicating with my WiFi. Isn't a problem unless you want to change the colors. If I reset them they tend to connect again but still with difficulty and I've got 7 on the same switch so reconnecting is a bummer. Seller contacted me and sent 4 new bulbs.
