What Are Smart Lightbulbs?
A smart lightbulb is a wifi-enabled LED bulb that allows the user to remotely control their lighting via customized, scheduled and controlled preset options. Smart light bulbs allow for instantly setting any atmospheric mood with a variety of colors and hues as well as a variety of shades of white.
Many smart LED bulb products work with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant when paired with a nearby compatible Google Nest or Amazon Echo device. Smart bulbs can be used with typical lamps or LED table lamps.
What Type of Smart Lightbulbs Are Available?
Smart home light bulbs come in a variety of form factors and color options to suit your unique needs. Learn more below to ensure you purchase the one that’s right for you.
Smart LED Bulb
The standard smart LED bulb fits in most standard light fixtures and is controlled by a free mobile app. The app has built-in automation functions and an intuitive user interface which is all you need to control your smart LED lightbulb.
The app also acts as a hub where you can control multiple LED smart bulbs simultaneously. Remote access allows you to turn your lights on and off from anywhere or schedule the lights to switch by themselves.
White Light Bulb
White smart lighting bulbs are similar to LED bulbs but the base comes in white. They can bring the perfect amount of soft white light to any area. For example, consider a soft dimmable white for functional spaces or warm-to-cool white light to enhance everyday moments.
LED Lightstrip
The LED lightstrip is perfect for lighting both indoor and outdoor settings. It provides a diffused glow that is perfect for direct and indirect lighting. The light diffuses, or scatters, the emitted white or colored light.
The strip is flexible for custom mounting solutions that shape the light in unique ways. It’s also weather-resistant, so users can use them on porches, patios and other outdoor applications.
How Often Should Smart Lightbulbs Be Replaced?
Smart LED bulbs not only allow ultimate user customization but last longer than incandescent lightbulbs for less frequent replacement. If your smart LED light bulbs are switched on for three hours per day on average, then your light can last up to 22 years.
Many smart home light bulb manufacturers offer multi-year insurance coverage to make sure their customers are able to get the best use of their long-lasting products.
