Sengled Smart Flood Light Bulbs work with SmartThings Hub, Echo 4th, Echo Plus, Alexa, Google, Zigbee Hub Required, PAR38 Led Bulb Motion Sensor Light Outdoor, Dusk to Dawn, 3000K, 1200LM, 1 Pack

The bulbs are good. Amazon instructions are not.
Let me start by saying the bulbs are good and work well with Homey Pro 2023.These are Zigbee bulbs and require a Zigbee hub. It is clearly stated in the description.Two days after delivery I received an email from Amazon with instruction for setting up the bulbs. The instructions start with the Sengled app which does not support Zigbee bulbs. I already knew this, but it is no wonder that Amazon gets so many returns when they send out incorrect instructions.

Not bright enough – if running deCONZ as ZigBee handler
Purchased the BR-30 bulbs and the colors are pretty decent, however the brightness is severely lacking. We’ve tried a range of temperatures of white, warm to cool, all at full brightness, and the room still looks like the lights need to be turned on. I’ll have to find something else to do with these lights, because they aren’t going to work out for the room I planned to use them in. Set up was easy, running a ZigBee network through Home Assistant using DECONZ, found them instantly, grouped the bulbs and can easily control the color, brightness, and state for all of them as a group. But these bulbs that are listed as 75 watt equivalent are putting out less light than some 40 watt bulbs we have.*Update – through online forums I found that DECONZ was not exposing all of the functionality of these bulbs, the issues with the bulbs not being bright enough are due to the fact that some LEDs are dedicated to the white color ranges and we’re not being activated by the DECONZ handler. Switching to either ZHA, or Zigbee2mqtt, resolves the issue. These bulbs now look great and are fully tunable throughout the spectrum of white lighting. The colors are good, saturation of the colors isn’t super deep but it does offer a nice balance of providing light and color.

Easy Alexa Integration – Awesome soft to daylight tones
I purchased four of these bulbs mostly for the ability to control white tones throughout the evening. These were very easy to install (I have a Segled Hub) and integrate using Alexa. Using the Segled App, I have set up different tones and percent brightness as the night sets in. I also use one as a nightlight, which automatically turns on the blue tone on one light only at about 5% perfect. This illuminates the living room just enough to not run into anything in the middle of the night. I programmed this entire routine into the Segled App and don’t have to touch anything on a daily basis. Just leave the wall switch on. Very easy to program.Colors all seem rich and vibrant to me. I’m sure there are other more expensive brands that have more intense colors, but I am pleased with the color from these bulbs. I also have three other soft white Segled bulbs for use around the house and they have been fantastic. Great value, great color effects… what’s not to love?

En total compré 6 focos. Tenía mis dudas respecto a Sengled por la colectividad, pero encontré una oferta y compre un par. Los progre y no he tenido problemas (3 meses de uso). Desde el principio el emparejamiento fue super rápido, la app sencilla e intuituva, inclusive tienen una opción de efectos, en donde los colores cambian aleatoriamente, también tienen un efecto navidad y Haloween. Los recomiendo mucho! Los focos son algo pesados y se sienten de gran calidad. Los tengo en el exterior (aunque no se recomienda), pero están en una terraza completamente techada y no he tenido problemas. Seguiré adquiriendo más productos de la marca!

Needed smart lights in a stairway the needed to be lit only when in use – these save me from having to bark commands at my smart home setup every time. Also very bright. Motion sensor is a bit overly sensitive, but I haven’t figured out whether that can be turned down.
