I Love a Good Gadget!



I am amazed at the level of technology packed into this LED speaker bulb! First, the bulb is completely controllable from your smart device. There is a QR code on the box, and scanning took me directly to the app in the App Store. Once it downloaded, I paired mine on my iPad Air 2 with zero issues.

The app is multi faceted and would take far more space than I'm allotted here to explain all the features. I will hit on a few, but really, there are so many. The app comes with a full color wheel from which you are able to choose the shade of the illumination. From rich greens to brilliant purples, the choices are infinite. Next, there is a dimming feature that allows for a wide range of brightness settings--a bonus if your fixture doesn't have a dimmer! Aside from simply dimming, you are also able to choose a lighting mode. The bulb can be set to pulse, produce a gradual change of rainbow colors, flash, flicker or keep rhythm to the music. The music is optional, can be played with or without the illuminating features, and anything on your smart device can be pumped through the speaker. The sound isn't necessarily high end, but the bass is decent.

We are having so much fun with this bulb, and I'm hoping the novelty doesn't wear thin. Five big stars for form and function!

Note: I received a discount on this bulb in exchange for an honest review.
