C is for cheap new smart bulbs from GE

[@sirajmadanie]

where is the link to buy these bulbs?

[@broccool2300]

Instead of making the light bulb smart, they should make the switch smart. Light bulbs wear out but the switch lasts a long time. You could also make the switch more robust than a bulb and able to be access through your internet connection.

[@500iq6foot8]

+elephant Its all about easy installation. Plus LED bulbs do last a while

[@KeepingItKevin]

I do like the the follow the sun feature. Should help with sleeping habits.

[@girlzaloud5599]

Will these connect with the Amazon Echo?

[@mssande211]

GIRLZ ALOUD I've been trying to figure it out for a couple hours now.. Unfortunately, I don't think it does.

[@vancouvercanuck4life]

When you say you have to be in Bluetooth range for the color change to work, do you mean at the time specified? Like let’s say I want a color change at 6pm but I get home at 6:15 and am connected to Bluetooth. Will the color change automatically? Or do I have to be in Bluetooth range at the specified time (ie I must be connected at 6pm or it won’t work)

[@biggusdickkus2956]

Well obviously l would say, it can't send the command to the bulbs if its not in range.

[@biggusdickkus2956]

50 dollars for 4 thats $12.50 each. You can get a Phillips hue bulb with bluetooth for the same amount. Plus they will work with alexa.

[@asmircar1]

what is chepest color light bulb ?

[@brianjwoomer]

2/5 rating on amazon for a reason. Got 20 on black friday. 7 for 20 worked. Returned 12, got 4 of those 12 to work. Returning all 20 now. They may sync the first time but make sure you try to re-synce every bulb you intend to keep. I am in a 800ish sq ft townhome with 2 google homes so everything is within blutooth range. You have been warned, simply see amazon reviews. My guess is blutooth lights will phase out quickly, you will only be able to trust wifi bulbs.

[@francescosenatore3504]

Do ordinary light dimmers and switches really deserve to become obsolete? Then when you have no access to the app or website, you cannot control the lights? Or am I just exaggerating since these smart bulbs could simply be an extension to the ordinary light switches? (where they be could be controlled in both ways)

[@BluntForceTrauma666]

_EXACTLY!_ You concerns are NOT unfounded and they also apply to pretty much everything else that's IoT/app/"cloud" based. The perceived greatness and success of the recent slow shift away from storing information locally as well as *requiring* network access to do just about ANYTHING is 100% based on the fallacy that network access is ALWAYS available. That's been true thus far, but MARK MY WORDS - At some point there WILL be a widespread infrastructure failure of some type (cascade failure after a satellite collision, regional blackout, etc.) and everyone who stores ALL their information online and hinges their ability to function on having relaible network connectivity - is going to be F**KED. It's all just a matter of time...

BluntForceTrauma666 Satellites? The Internet is connected through a series of fiber optic cables. Many of which travel under the sea.

[@BasedBrah10]

@@RicardoCanedoMX what if a megalodon eats them tho??? 😱😱😱

[@biggusdickkus2956]

You can still use the switches.

[@wyterias6150]

So u cant use far away to turn on and off lights

[@biggusdickkus2956]

You could with a wifi operated Bluetooth sender but its a lot of messing about. 😂

[@elukok]

Why would you want to control light bulbs when you are outside your house?

[@francescosenatore3504]

+obscuresword Couldn't you just turn them on before you leave? If you forget, you forget, it's not the end of the world.

[@tajdidajman4889]

mostly to deter thieves

[@colbyperry3325]

Another trick, put bright white bulbs in your bedroom, put yello bulbs in your living room and kitchen

[@lawrencev.athill7502]

seriously "c" is for cheap? lmbo

[@nadimintikrishnateja]

I came here after Google add on these smart bulbs.. lol but they didn't include any link to these unlike this channel.

[@RudydeGroot]

Wifi or Bluetooth?

[@willemvanoosterum4407]

Bluetooth

[@stevecash7174]

Does this light bulb save you money on your electricity bill?

[@biggusdickkus2956]

They last for years and years and use less electricity so the answer would be yes.

[@justin3161]

man I got these for 10 bucks

[@biggusdickkus2956]

Bargain.

[@yourusernamehere]

C is for hello world!

[@HeySirii]

can you control them with siri?

[@esana]

[@Captain-Groovy]

Why does CNET talk about stupid BULBS so often? Are BULBS Americans' best hobby thesedays?

c is for crap

[@FracturedReality]

👎👎 Why don't you guys make a video on your latest Android interface app for your smart lights. When I first installed your app and configured the lights a small learning curve which was just fine, the app allows you to see all your lights at one time whether they were on or off. Now you have lights are nested in groups which totally sucks, who was the Einstein behind this brilliant idea. I no longer use your app as an interface because you've changed it from user-friendly to not-friendly ! But there was an easy fix for this I use the Alexa app or the Google Home app, just to let you know these apps allow you to see all devices running or not all at one time, "what a relief - they had the common sense to make their app user-friendly" I would get rid of get rid of the dumb dumb who made the final decision to go in the direction guys are headed before you lose more of your marketing base to other smart light companies.

[@someonethatexists-p1p]

Chinese first invented it.

[@PaulHojda]

Why do lightbulbs need to be smart? They just need to illuminate, while not using too much power. Everything else is a gimmick you can do without

[@mssande211]

Paul Hojda Why does KZbin's interface include a section where people can type their thoughts and post them for others to see?

[@biggusdickkus2956]

It's calleed progress and technology, you should try them.

[@technologyproductions-ye3px]

I can buy light bulbs from dollar tree for 1$ this LED is overpriced

[@1984TMNT]

+Tommy Whitaker i can also buy a burger for $1 at mcdonald's, doesn't mean its a good thing

[@technologyproductions-ye3px]

TMNT 1984 yes but for the price they are good

[@technologyproductions-ye3px]

TMNT 1984 LEDS are overpriced even CFLS ARE BETTER

[@karenjarrett529]
