read last 2 chapters of review for this items integration . the rest is for something elsethis kelvin colour wouldn't cure depression .so choose wiselythis company builds some of the best lights surpassing even Philips hue stuff.and they usually price it around £10 / piece. wish they did some wifi matters integration in to their bulbs. have a bunch of their bulbs and never regretted buying their stuff.there is science behind their bulbs. well they might as well not know it . let me explainthere is hardly any sunshine here in uk. ever heard of scanadanivian countries having the highest rate of suicide. Greenland/iceland etc. well had it occurred to you that it might be linked to the gloomy atmosphere year round .well here comes the good news. the 5000k and 6000k bulbs are designed to mimic sunlight indoors and they are bright. trust me when I say it will light up your home and light it up good.the bulbs have anti flicker tech which means when you snap pics with these bulbs on you video film wouldn't have flickers in them. it means the frequency that these bulbs work is not irritating for humans and animals I think.when the human brain gets its fair share of sunlight it is less prone to depression. so to cure depression buy the 5000k or 6000k lights. they are literal life savers. you will see mood improving inside your homes once you have these installed. they will bring indirect happiness . I use Philips hue smart plugs connected to lams with these bulbs and use a sensor to detect my presence in the room to automatically turn on and off the lights. you can literally buy any smart plug which also has infrared sensor like tp link tapo smart plugs . best to buy matters certified smart plugs from tapo. the p110m version is good and £10er each. the sensor will light up the lamps and shut them off when it stops detecting presence in the room . this way you end up with automatic lights in your living room.I used 3 of these 30w bulbs in each bedroom . changed to Philips hue . you need around 4500 lumen in a bedroom to cure depression and around double that in a living room . this is for a house that is pure white inside paint. if dark coloured paints then the lumen requirement goes up of 50%. best to buy white furniture and curtains to keep sense of the space being open and large.

Wanted a super bright yet dimmable sinlge smart bulb solution - this does not disappoint. Integegrated with Home Assistant via Zigbee2MQTT, and bound to a spare dimmer.

I am the idiot that bought the brightest hue bulb I could, and finds it too bright at full power, but that is a me problem, not a bulb problem, so five stars to it and one to the purchaser!

Very useful to be able to add a remote controlled bulb somewhere it would otherwise be hard to run wiring for a switch too. Using this with the Philips remote and it was very easy to install and works well. Haven't tried it with the app after initial setup

Much brighter than the old

It doesn’t work with Alexa unless you have a hue bridge. This is ridiculous.

Good bright light
