A bright idea!
Just installed these (3) today, it was a pretty straight forward install, as changing out a light bulb should be. Well almost, the code that you need to scan for each bulb is on the bottom of the box or on the light bulb itself (very small for old eyes). If your installing multiple lights I'd recommend keeping the bulb and box together, not unboxing all of them and mixing them up as someone may have done. It's too late to scan the code on the bulb after its in a fixture! The codes have numbers so if you can read them you can match them up... anyway just screw the bulb in scan the code from its box, pretty straight forward. I'm fairly pleased with the amount of light that they give off. More so than my previous bulbs and it is nice that I can dim them from the app. I have two outside and one inside. I was a bit confused with the questions that the app asked about motion though! I was beginning to think that these were also motion sensitive bulbs, but they are not. The required bridge allows them to work with motion from other devices. I have my inside porch bulb setup to come on when my ring doorbell senses motion and my outside lights are on from dusk till dawn, this works very nicely. Setting this up in the app isn't as straight forward as it could be though! I had to link the doorbell with the light in the doorbell section not the lighting section. I have two more cameras/motion sensors to install so it's going to get interesting as far as the app goes, but everything works as I want it to right now. Overall I'm very pleased with these bulbs. DON'T forget to purchase the Ring bridge, I know it says everywhere that you need it, but someone's going to give this a once star review because they didn't buy it or it doesn't work without it.....
