TP-Link Smart Button | Wireless Remote Dimmer Switch | 3-Way Control | Tap & Rotate HUB Required | 1+ Year Battery Life

Put the light in the socket, turned it on, opened Google Home and scanned the bar code sticker in the box. Done. No additional third party apps or accounts needed. It throws a lot of light. I can put two in my ceiling lamp and it feels like the sun. Claims to be a 75 watt equivalent. I'd say it's plenty of light for most things. Can also dim and change both color and color temperature. I told Google to turn my kitchen light blue and it did. Features all work in automation too. At roughly 10 us dollars per bulb, it's a little pricey for a light bulb, but way cheaper than a dimmable smart plug and surprisingly entertaining. Feels like a plastic light bulb in terms of quality. I had zero fear when installing. Seems to be standard in size to the common household light bulb. I can't speak for durability as I just turned it on and off a few times, but it did work, flawlessly with Google Home, out of the box, so it's a winner. 10/10. Will buy again.

Updated Review- Quality Materials, Very Nice and Bright, Good clear colors. I typically buy TP-Link products because they are quality made, integrate well with Alexa, and simply work as designed. I bought these because these are 1100 lumens to replace a different brand 800 lumen smart bulb and these are a great update. My original review complained of random On/Off occurring and a couple weeks of debugging (including contacting Tapo Support). What I found was an ALEXA issue with the "Away Mode" routine that is made to randomly turn items on and off. The "mode" has a checkbox to automatically add new devices to be randomly turned on and off. The kicker is that ALEXA doesn't record the execution of this routine in its tracking so it was hard to find the problem without a recorded trail. It wasn't the lights after all.

Love this bulb! This product along with the downloaded TP Link app works great! Have this above my kitchen sink and set on a schedule so it goes on at night and off in the morning. House is lit when coming home at night! Amazing how you can set this to multiple colors/brightness/warmth. Simple to install and link to WiFi. Well worth it!

These bulbs work fine for basic functions, but I was looking for bulbs that connect via Matter and dim properly with Alexa. This feature is inconsistent and works intermittently, so I decided to return them.

Seem to work... A mention beforehand: I have a few other TP-Link items at home: Bulbs and plugs, plus a few other items that are not TP-link. These were set up using the Kasa Home app. (Plus those "few other" item apps.) All Alexa friendly. Was replacing a years-old smart-bulb. I think the electronics died? Tapo seems to have replaced TP-Link. So... I screwed in the bulb, bulb flashed, fired up Kasa home - and it did not find the bulb. So much for a quick lunch-time install... (But after the first time, yeah, you can expect it to go that fast.) There's a new app... Downloaded the Tapo app during the afternoon . Back at home again, the Taco app recognized my Kasa ID, asked for the password. I didn't have it at hand, so I just re-set it. Tapo app knew Kasa, brought in all my toys, and even the previous electric usage. I then powered up that first bulb again - no 'we are here!' flashes this time. App said can't find it. I even tried the on/off reset process* on the bulb. Nothing OK... I tried starting fresh with the second bulb. (I think I hit 'back' on the app to get here?) Same thing. Baffled, I pressed "Quit Set-up". It basically said "Really? You're almost done." I said "Yeah. Really." Didn't know what other option to try.... So it quit set-up - and then it pops up a "I found a light bulb!" window on the main screen. (I didn't consciously notice at that moment, but it had labeled that found bulb as 'Light Bulb 2'.) It allowed me to rename it, and it/I was done**. Then I noticed there was also a 'Light Bulb 1' installed. It had apparently found that first one somehow, during whatever it/I did. * Reset was described differently in two places: One said off/on 5x, with two seconds between each - I took that literally, tried that. off/on, 2 secs, off/on, 2 secs, etc. Didn't work - and the other said 1 second, but said do this between ALL actions. off, wait, on, wait, off, wait, on, wait - five times - which didn't get me the 'set-up' flash, either. **After it is set up in Tapo, you probably need to check settings (names) in the Alexa App. Alexa had somehow picked up both new devices, as 'Light Bulb 1' and 'Light Bulb 2', during all this: Was checking Alexa after that second bulb seemed to successfully install in Taco. That's when/how I realized ~both~ bulbs had been successfully set up. I just opened set-up for both and updated the Alexa names to match the Taco names. Another note: My Samsung S9+, with Android11 - old, like me - does not link the Alexa account with the Tapo account. (I think that's a 'skill' thing?) Which means I no longer/do not have full functionality of the smart items via Alexa, at the moment. (Used to work...) But they do show up, and they turn on and off. Anything other settings (dim/color.) need to be done via the app. Need Android12+. I guess it's finally new phone time...

Working very well. A bit of a pain to pair but after that as is good with operation. I do wish I could get find a brighter one but this is the best I can find in a smart bulb. The pic is at 100% daylight brightness. Not happy.

These a so great and easy I gave them out as gifts this Christmas. We have a few in our bedrooms to give the “sunrise effect” to fade on about 30 minutes before our wake up alarms. The companion app is intuitive and easy to use. Creating schedules and setting the light colors & intensity is a breeze. I’ve got ours to work with Apple Home, but usually just use the Widget on my Home Screen.

Smart multi color/tunable white light bulbs with easy set up. Used the app to install the lights and set the routine best for my house. Have had these types of bulbs for years and have been pleased with them. Have has most bulbs for several years and they have been dependable, good lifespan. The price for these seems to be very reasonable, not much more than a regular bulb. These are also compatible with Alexa and Google. You can use the app to adjust all sorts of settings, most of mine are set on a schedule so I rarely have to issue a voice or app command. Just set them and forget about them.
