BEFORE YOU START:As a installation tip, turn off power, install bulbs, turn on and off 3 times until they blink, and then connect them in the app via BLUETOOTH FIRST. After they are registered, THEN conenct them to your wi-fi.When we rewired and replaced our fan/lights, we needed new bulbs. I started with the Cync/GE Candelabra E12s because there were already part of our home eco system. But the only options available were WARM white with no RGB, and no COOL white setting. (We prefer it in our workspace to keep us productive! And pictures turn out nicer in our opinon) So those were returned and we went for something else.We got a different Amazon set that claimed they had programmable white, but alas, those were ALSO WARM white. Returned. I was starting to think that COOL white wasn't an option, until I stumbled on these lights. BOOM. Game changer.These came in a rather unassuming box and were, for the most part, cheap looking. The bulbs themselves are pretty hefty, and seem well-constructed. Using the instructions in the box, the installation seemed pretty straight-forward...exccept it wasn't.You see, I don't like giving phone access to EVERYTHING if I know the use shouldn't utilize them. So why was the app requiring permission for my exact location and camera/mic access? (Yes, I have been informed that geo-location is mostly for connected home "when I'm here" setups, but come ON) anyway, after trying to bypass the attempts, I finally gave in and allowed them the permissions they asked for. Then, the bulbs were FINALLY recognized. (go figure!)BUT they wouldn't connect to the internet right away. So here's where I'd normally go nuts, however, in the past, I had dealt with this SAME issue with bulbs from FEIT. So I did the thing I did before (as mentioned at the beginning of this review) bluetooth first, wifi second. and badabing bada-boom: connected.Went to the Alexa app, found the lights, (Dogain) paired, created a room and we were done! While the ordeal SEEMS like it took forever, the actual amount of time spent from unboxing to completion was like... 15 minutes (Time really slows down when you're upset!).As with literally ALL RGB lights, colored light will not create a bright source, and installing them in a place meant for big lighting doesn't mean they're going to create them. These bulbs are bright *enough* when they are on white-tones but they are NOT very bright when they are set to color.Overall, the light souce is exactly what we were looking for; Cool White light and the option for RGB for the kids and ambiance/background. I quite like them! As for the permissions, those were UN-granted immediately after the completed install, and if you're utilizing Alexa/Google Home, there's no reason to have them on.

First off for the price these bulbs are not that bad, they are a little dim even at full brightness but they do still light an entire room. I use all 3 that I bought for one ceiling fan and I love how they still light up the room well and the fact that I can change the color on these bulbs is what makes it even more awesome!As for the actual smart home function, the app is very simple to use and the bulbs are very easy to pair. Follow the instructions and I promise you’ll agree. The thing I really like about the app is that it is really well designed, usually low cost smart home products have poor apps that are buggy/glitchy but the app for this is perfect in my opinion. Alexa/Google Home/HomeKit functionality is really well done. I use GH and HomeKit and they have both been able to turn them on/off and change colors, I have even been able to dim the lights too!If you’re looking for a low cost 3 pack of bulbs that has a really well designed app I say buy these. You can’t go wrong.
