Smart Lighting Options

There are lots of choices when getting started with smart lighting. Buying just one smart light can help you test the waters and see which fixtures in which areas make the most sense for you. After that, smart lighting kits are a cost-effective way to make all your lighting work together to create the moods and spaces you desire. Light strips are a great way to augment your system to highlight key spaces or furniture.

When picking bulbs, the output numbers can be confusing, especially if you're used to conventional bulbs measured in watts. Because they are so much more efficient, the wattages of LED smart lights won't mean much to you. Instead, think in terms of lumens – the measure of how much visible light a bulb is capable of producing. To help you gauge how many lumens you'll want from an LED smart light, it's helpful to compare to corresponding conventional bulb wattages: A 40-watt incandescent bulb puts out around 450 lumens, a 60-watt bulb 800 lumens, and a 100 watt bulb 1,600 lumens.
