Changing Colors Dimmable Control Equivalent Reviews Summary

Customer Service

Pros:

• "Update: The seller send me a new set. I’m hoping these will last longer and I’m definitely happy with the customer service."
• "I did have one quit working and notified the company. They sent me another box of 4. Good customer service."
• "However, I am impressed with the manufacturer who actually sent mt a full replacement of my order (all four bulbs + two remotes)."
• "We had a couple of defective bulbs in the first order. I sent an email and got quick feedback. Replacement came in two days."
• "After contacting the company, they responded right away and replaced the bulb plus provided extra bulbs as an gift in a timely manner (about 2days)."
• "The company does stand behind this warranty, so although I saw some say they had not reached or had no customer support, I did not find this the case."
• "BUT—the company is remarkably responsive and has sent me 2 free boxes of multiple bulbs so far when I’ve contacted them."

Cons:

• "Sent 2 messages so far via their customer service email. It claims they will resolve/respond within 12 hours. It’s been 2 weeks with no response."
• "Ordered these in April and 3 out of the 4 bulbs have already gone bad and the email address for the warranty is non existent and made up."
• "Also, one of the bulbs was defective and didn't work at allI notified the seller over two weeks ago about the defective bulb who said they would send a replacement for it, which I have yet to receive."
• "Bought these back in February and liked them... Less than 5 months later one bulb is already dead... Emailed twice now and no reply and no way of getting the bulb replaced otherwise."
• "Wrote the company and complained they sent me another 8pk same problems no response as to why."
• "***updating because after less than 3 months of sporadic use they’ve all either burned out entirely or blink in and out randomly ***"
• "EDIT: It's now mid November and another bulb has died in the socket, making a total of three failures out of four bulbs in roughly 4 months."

Remote Control

Pros:

• "The remote doesn't seem to require line of sight, which is nice if you have them in a lamp or something where it's obstructed."
• "This makes it impossible to add a dimmer switch so this remote helps with the solution."
• "The remote is fairly intuitive."
• "The remote is easy to use; just point and click."
• "The remotes work well - and you get 2!"
• "The remotes work wonderfully. I love using a physical remote (that can be left near the light), rather than having to find and open up a phone app just to use them."
• "These lights work great. They’re brighter than others I’ve purchased and the remote control works from about 10-15 feet away."

Cons:

• "Also, while the flashing changing lights is not a feature I really need, I cannot get two bulbs to do it at the same time."
• "A big issue that I have right now is that the bulb uses infrared remote to control and it constantly catches interference from my Comcast report when I try to do simple things like turning the volume up."
• "The remote function doesn't seem to work easily. Difficulty switching colors from time to time."
• "The only thing lacking is the remote is 'pictures only' so you have to try ALL the modes to understand what they do."
• "But now that I've had them about a year, I've noticed they stopped responding to the off button on the remote unless you hold it directly up to the bulb."
• "Can someone please help me reset my controller so I can change the setting on my bulb? I’ve looked for instructions with no luck."
• "I couldn't stand more than 15-20 feet away or the remote wouldn't work."

Light Quality and Brightness

Pros:

• "These lights are beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend these. You won’t be disappointed."
• "I love these! My house looks great! I did different color changing for Easter and now I have them all in blue for first responders & health care workers!"
• "I'm a huge fan of RGB lights, and these are my favorite."
• "They are NOT DAZZLING bright beams of light, but instead a wash of Ambient Cooled Lights that will slowly, (or quickly) change colours 'in sync' or separately depending on how you set the remote."
• "The color is very vibrant, clear color, & much brighter than other same size bulbs."
• "These colorful LED lights work beautifully in our curio cabinet."
• "The aqua and blue colors are really nice and are mine and my kids' favorites."

Cons:

• "Very low light level probably great for indoors but not for an outdoor application!"
• "These bulbs cannot replace a similarly sized and powered halogen. In their white mode they do not effectively light a counter surface five or six feet below a kitchen light fixture."
• "They do not work well for actual lighting as the white isn’t bright but as accent lights they are perfect."
• "First of all, I really wish I had purchased the bulbs with 16 colors instead as the yellow is more of a green tone and the bulbs don't always work simultaneously."
• "I specifically searched for dimmable led bulbs but when plugged into a dimmable outlet they don't dim, instead they just flicker, which means they are not dimmable as stated in the description."
• "These bulbs are mostly great when set as a static color but they occasionally change themselves to a yellow-green shade without any user input."
• "Updated review. They aren’t as bright as the bulbs they replaced in my china cabinet, a couple Buzz badly; and strangely, when they are on they cause other led bulbs on the same circuit to blink on and off."

Product Durability

Pros:

• "Edit: Two years of use and still going strong!"
• "Anyway, these lamps are great. Easy to screw-in."
• "These lights fit in the regular standard light bulb sockets."
• "Small bulb, but powerful."
• "So far it’s been durable and it works fine on the porch light switch timer."
• "I’ve never had one burn out from longevity, so for 24/7/365 use they seem to be good."
• "I put this bulb in an up light behind a silk tree in my living room. I can set it to any color or have it flash each one. Looks so awesome!"

Cons:

• "This works for a month or two then just starts flashing red and will not stop is useless at this point."
• "Most of them have failed working less than a year later in my can lights outside."
• "Loved the idea and the bulbs while they worked. Bought probably 4 8pks. Some lasted 2 months while others lasted 2 weeks."
• "Worked great for a little while. But after 5-6 months they started flickering and driving me nuts."
• "Also, as they get older, they start flickering pretty bad if you set the brightness down from anything but maximum."
• "Many times they all begin flashing repeatedly and hard to just turn them all off."
• "The only issue is that several times whether I have used the remote, unplugged the lamp or there’s a brief blackout, the bulb is shot and won’t work again, just weakly flickers."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "These are absolutely awesome. You could spend twice as much money on simpleLED spotlights, or you can have these awesome lights with multiple colors and modes as well as two nice quality remotes."
• "So these are nice for the price point."
• "The four pack of LED lights +2 remotes are also reasonably priced."
• "With all the features they are worth every penny."
• "This item is Amazing. Set of four with two remotes included."
• "A fun, incredibly affordable, set of lights which ship in just a couple of days."
• "These lights are simply awesome."
