Bluetooth 100W A19 2700K

I could not for the life of me find reviews that talk about operating a smart bulb with a wall switch. Now that I’ve tested this one, I can do it.I have a lamp in my TV room controlled by a wall switch. I’m fine with that and want to keep it that way. That is, until I get comfortable on the couch with the cat sitting in my lap. I don’t want to have to get up and turn it off. That is where the Sengled bulb and the echo come in: “Alexa, Light 1 Off”.When I’m ready to leave the room I say “Alexa, Light 1 On”, and my way out of the formerly dark room is lit. Then, when I leave the room, I use the WALL switch to turn off the light as I’ve been used to doing for years. The next time I go to the room, I turn the light on with the WALL switch and it comes ON, which is what I wanted.Even better, it comes on at the brightness level it was last set for. I chose the 100W equivalent bulb which I normally run at about 50%. I get the same light level as the old bulb, but I have the option for more light when I need it (such as when cleaning). “Alexa, Light 1 to 100%”. I use that a lot.To be clear, this is the Bluetooth light that works only with Alexa. I’m okay with that as I’ve been an Echo user for a while now, and I’m already signed up. All of the other smart bulbs I considered need some app downloaded, an account set up, and linking the app to Amazon. I need that like a hole in the head.I absolutely love that this bulb can be set up without a third-party app. That is worth a few extra bucks to me. I was up and running in a couple of minutes. The setup isn’t totally glitch-free (largely due to the Alexa app) and Alexa sometimes says the light isn’t responding (even when it does). I can overlook that because it works anyway.I am so pleased, I bought additional 100W equivalent bulbs. One is over the dining table where I like it to be dim most of the time. It is great to be able to get more light on demand without using dimmer switches (which I don’t have). Finally, the Echo can do something of value other than play music.

These smart bulbs are so great. I wish I'd bought them a long time ago. I used to love the flexibility of 3-way incandescent light bulbs, and I wanted something similar for my living room table lamps and decided to try these smart bulbs. You can get an app for your phone and control the bulbs with it - brightness, on/off, etc. They work great, and should last a long time. The price was right, and I really feel that I got my money's worth.

Excellent bulb and their service is excellent.

Should have better directions!

Connect up to our network, and controlled through Alexa. We don't use the different colors much but it's nice to have them. I really like being able to control the lights through the app on my phone.

It’s such a shame that the two bulbs I bought emitted such an intense yellow because these are the brightest lightbulbs I’ve ever had. I think the value is fair for how long these bulbs would last, they’re subtle, easy to install and connect to Bluetooth and just get the job done when you don’t feel like getting up. But I can’t get over how yellow my room looks now, so I will be exchanging them to see if the “daylight” is more of what I’m looking for.

I have purchased several of these a while back they worked so well I decided to purchase some more

DO NOT BUY FROM SENGLED. Their network is required to use the bulbs and they don't maintain it. I've gone without used of my lights days at a time. They do not communicate or acknowledge what the problem was. Currently I have been unable to use the bulbs for a week. It was wasted money and the bulbs are now in the trash.
