    I tried pairing these lights to the apps for two hours and finally only got 6 of 8 to work. They were far cheaper than Hue lights but their reliability is so bad I’m going back to Hue for these 8 bulbs. Even with an amazing Black Friday price.

      Hi there sorry you were not able to get the other 2 lights to connect. If you are using the Google Home app for setting them up they do have a 6 device limitation per home. If you are having issues please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 1-844-302-2943

      We are sorry to hear that your purchasing and setup experience has been less than ideal. We do offer these bulbs in a Bluetooth-only format the product code for them is 93104413 when searching online. The Wi-Fi connection is to improve the range and connectivity as well as being able to control them from the app away from home.

    While the lights themselves work great and have a nice range of color, their compatibility with Alexa is glitchy. They drop connection and lag constantly. I have other smart lights of a different brand and they do not have this problem. Not recommended.
