Treatlife Smart Light Bulb, Dimmable Multicolor and White LED Bulb, Compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant, A19 E26 8W (60W Equivalent), No Hub Required, 2 Pack

These bulbs have proven to be long lasting, and problem free for Alexa based home automation. We primarily use them for white light, but we have also used them for color output on occasion to good effect. They are a little dim by comparison to other brand LED bulbs we own which is rated at the same wattage. I might investigate whether the non-color version of this brand bulb is brighter, however I would by this product and brand again.

By far the best choice! I tried 5 different brands and apps. Easy install, easy linking, effective dimmer and great smart home connection with Alexa. These beat everything else I found. Other brands lost connectivity with the WiFi frequently (big names too). I had one brand that any time a storm cut power, they would have to be reset and serial number detail reprogrammed to the WiFi. These reconnect without fail, they have plenty of dimming adjustment and they look nice on the wall. These are the only ones I will ever use. Highly recommend…. Don’t be fooled by the other names, this is the product you want.

It works great. It can get really bright. It has different modes in the app. It even has automation. Worth the money

These bulbs, by and large, work like Phillips Hue light bulbs, but connecting to Alexa devices is a skosh more complicated. Once I figured it out with a brief web search, these bulbs seem rather viable. I have full control of color and brightness, much like the Hue devices that have recently become prohibitively expensive.I rated these with four stars because they have to prove themselves reliable over time, but I should be clear that I bought these to supplement my overall light bulb array and specifically to replace a Hue bulb that failed.

These do everything they are advertised to do,They will pair \ install using Smart Life and you can connect through alexa \ smartlife skill to turn on and off the lights as you want. You can voice control the Temp (Warm, Cool, Daylight) as well as the hue (Red, Blue, Green etc) and control the dimness by calling out a percentage. If you use single numbers w/o percent it assumes 1 = 10% i.e. if I say set lights to 5 that's 50% or I can say "dim lights to 25" for an absolute percentage. if you use single numbers make sure to say "Percent" after them if you want 5% versus 50%.If you open the bulb in alexa you can see the 5 "tunable" shades of white light as well as 16 shades of colorAlexa will not see "grouped" devices in smart life - you have to create your own groupAs such I have my rooms and then I have groups for each room's ceiling fan because some rooms (like my bedroom) have lamps too. You can only control individual bulbs in the alexa app or groups - and with groups there is only on or off unless you use voice commands. Also Alexa is often a butt, so more unique names might help with differences and the shorter the better. For example the wife and I both have offices and originally I did "{Name} office" for our offices. however sometimes she will confuse them or more often than not simply time out with the longer name, so now the wife has "Office" and I have a "Lair"they work well for automated routines - I can set an alexa routine to turn on specific lights or a group at specific times or say turn off all the lights when I say "Alexa, Goodnight"by turning off the switch and turning it back on, you can manually force the lights to come on - which is great if your internet goes out or if Alexa is being a butt.Unlike Hue and other fancier bulbs, they don't do gradual illumination on\off - i.e. if I turn them on, it's immediately to whatever the last value of dimming and color. *IF* the bulb takes the command.very often I'll say "Alexa turn on/off (group)" and I will get a ping of acknowledgement then pause, then *maybe* some or all of them respond... then pause, then maybe a few more. on average 1 out of every 4 might take a few seconds more when turning on. When turning off I find myself having to repeat the command 2, 3 times.This seems to be particularly common for Treatlife Color bulbs as I've replaced the lights in 7 ceiling fans at 4 bulbs each.So all in all 75% of my issues are more Alexa than the bulbs, however 25% is that these just don't seem to communicate as quickly and accurately as other devices both Hue and other smart life \ Tuya chipset devices.However, in defense, I got a free "hue" bulb from Amazon with an echo and it quit responding to the network within 6 months. if I'd paid going rate for those bulbs, they cost as much as a 4 pack of Treatlife bulbs. As such, so long as you realize it's not going to be as snazzy as those Hue commercials, they are all in all a good product.

At almost one year, I had a couple of bulbs fail for some strange reason. I have over a dozen of these bulbs, but two just died at the same exact time. I contacted customer service and they replaced the bulbs with no issues at all.EXCELLENT COMPANY TO DEAL WITH. WILL DEFINITELY BUY AGAIN!

Works well and bright enough. It was easy to pair with Alexa. So far it has been lasting for about a year now.

Will buy again.

I love these smart lights as it makes it easier to dim and turn off the lights with my Google home and Alexa devices. I needed these lights since it wasn't possible to set up a dimmer switch with my ceiling fan. I would recommend using the Alexa and Google home apps since the Treatlife app wasn't as good.You can change the colour of these lights to anything you want. There's a party feature where the lights flash different colours to the music, which is pretty neat. However, my eyes couldn't handle it for long. The ease of turning these lights to day and night lights as well as dimming them are so helpful. I have a setting that turns on the lights in the morning so it makes it easier to get out of bed!

Works perfectly for me. I was skeptical when reading some of the reviews of other people about the connection problems but no problems for me. I've been using this product for a few years using the smart life app and google home app. The Google home app lacks a lot of features such as timers or colors but in those cases I turn to the smart life app. The voice control feature works perfectly with Google speakers though

What I liked was easy to install app and set up, and than link treatlife through the google home home app. White light is also quite bright. What I disliked that some of the lightbulbs had a few dirty pieces of dirt (?) or something dark on it, as well as scratches over the light bulb. Not sure if it is an used product, but the transparent seal sticker seemed to be fine. I also disliked choosing a white colour on google home and purple appearing on the light. Overall good value at about $10 CAD per bulb. App seems to want access to a lot of phone info, whatever.

The media could not be loaded.  The lights came in a four pack, none were broken and it does what its suppose to do. The installation was easy just screw them in and flip your light switch on and off three times and it'll start pairing. If your pairing it to google home, don't use their TREATLIFE app as it doesn't appear to be support by google. Instead you can use SMARTLIFE which is basically the same thing app but this one is supported by Amazon Alexa and Google Home.PS. They do offer free items for leaving a review on their products but it is a good product either way

The media could not be loaded.  My home uses Treatlife smart light switches for most of the rooms upstairs, but one of the light switch electrical boxes has only two wires so I couldn't connect a smart dimmer switch. Instead of trying to feed new wires into my walls, I decided to use a conventional light switch and add a smart bulb or two in order to allow home automation lighting for that room. And if you are going that route, might as well use color LED bulbs so you can have some fun!Installation is of course easy, just a matter of screwing in the light bulb. Then to pair it with the network I went into the ubiquitous Smart Life app, hit the + button, and chose Auto Scan. Then I turned the light switch on and off three times and after a pause the light bulb flashed a few times. This means it is in discovery mode. The key to successfully pairing is to wait long enough for the Smart Life app to find the bulb on your network, probably 30 seconds or more. Once it is found you are good to go.All of the LED color bulbs I've seen provide 60 W equivalence or less. In other words, don't expect to find a super bright 100 W equivalent color LED bulb out in the wild. I decided to use two of these in the master bedroom so that both together would provide more than adequate light. Colored light in particular does not seem as bright as white light, since a single color only uses a fraction of the available light spectrum.If you want to use a smart light switch and a color LED bulb in tandem, the situation is a little more confusing at the moment. Turning off your light switch will also cut power to the LED bulb, meaning it is no longer connected to WiFi. In order for this to work properly, it would require a light switch that sends a data signal to turn the LED bulb on/off, rather than controlling the power. Maybe these type of switches exist for WiFi bulbs but I haven't seen them. Instead, a traditional light switch will do the job. You could leave the switch on all the time and control the bulb via voice or app, but this solution isn't ideal for others in the house who will become confused when they flip the light switch and the bulb doesn't power on. It's probably better to use the physical switch to power the smart bulb on and off. When you flick the switch on, the LED bulb turns on instantly and remembers the previous color setting. It takes perhaps 10 seconds to reconnect to WiFi in case you want to start changing brightness or color. It's not a perfect solution but it works just fine.Overall I'm very happy with this purchase. I recommend Treatlife smart bulbs to anyone who wants to try colored lighting or simply doesn't have the option to install a smart light switch.
