Setting up the SYLVANIA SMART+ BLUETOOTH Bulb from Dollarama

[@usuarioquefunciona]

I was almost throwing these bulbs from the balcony. Thanks for this video.

Thank you for this very helpful video. I have now set up my lights, and I could not have done so without you. Much appreciated.

Thanks to your video I didn't throw away this bulbs! Thank you!

[@thepinoyincanada]

I dont think so. You would need a google home mini at least

[@tmarcel1]

youre the best I was struggling to connect those. I almost give up. but now I got it. It worked perfectly. thanks

[@thepinoyincanada]

Glad I could help

Just a heads up. Once you downloaded the app, you do not need to have Alexa or a Google home or any other speaker. On the page where he's choosing which device to use, look down a little bit farther and there's a spot there that says "I don't have a device". Pick that and It'll walk you through the steps to set up. As far as I can tell, you can't set timers this way, but you can set up the light bulb color, brightness, etc. it was just function like a normal light bulb after that. Make sure when you're setting up the bulb, once it starts trying to connect, turn the bulb off and then on again and it should find it pretty quickly. Because it uses Bluetooth you have to be fairly close to the bulb during setup with your phone or tablet.

You are a timing saver man 👍 Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

Thanks for the video. I was trying to set them up in the google home app by linking the Sylvania account. Once I added it the way you showed, works great now. Thanks!

Excellent video!! thanks for that

[@clovins3]

Thanks bro!

Just an FYI, be sure that your Google Home and Android phone are on the same WiFi. They will need to be both on either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz for the setup to complete properly. Thank you to "The Pinoy In Canada" for this tutorial.

Thank you for the video. Please do you have the code for the bulb?

[@thepinoyincanada]

[@tranquilitybaseonMars]

Heyy….how do I do this on apple phone. It doesn’t have that app for apple i guess. Please advise

[@thepinoyincanada]

Sorry - I dont use an iphone so no idea

[@Its_ishak2013]

Thank you but you don't need a speaker btw

[@ramocardi4724]

So I need a google speaker to use the bulb?

[@thepinoyincanada]

yes

[@jaymcgoon3398]

No, you do not need an Alexa or Google home or any kind of speaker. What you do need is a phone/device that has Bluetooth and the app. when you're in the setup page if you scroll down just a little bit farther you will see an option that says "No smart speaker". Choose that and it will walk you through basic Bluetooth setup on your phone or tablet. Keep in mind that your Wi-Fi is irrelevant with the setup. There are two kinds of bulbs... one that uses Wi-Fi and one that uses Bluetooth. The OP is showing you the Bluetooth version of these which are sold at Dollarama. In order to adjust the bulbs in any way after setup, you will need to bring your phone, tablet or whatever Bluetooth device you're using to set up the bulb back within range of the bulb (should connect within a couple of feet of the bulb) Wi-Fi does not matter. When's it reconnects, you can then make any adjustments that you feel are necessary. Keep in mind that Bluetooth has a pretty short range. If your phone/device or speaker is more than a few feet away, it may have trouble connecting.

The first part worked but when connecting to Google or Alexa it did not work it did not connect it just stayed the same how it was

[@joe74rider]

i was good right up til put it in room then it never shows up in G home

[@AnonymousMod.]

They set up a Bluetooth mesh network. So you need to have a bulb like 20 feet from a google mini. And then you can add another bulb within 20-40 feet from that, etc etc. Imagine a bubble coming off the speaker and any bulbs you have. They have to be able to connect to each other even if that means being relayed by something in-between.
