    Basic Smart Lighting - Makes Financial Sense

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've been slowly adding smart lights to my home. A 60W incandescent (regular) light bulb will cost the average Californian $21/year (6 hours a day @ $0.16/kWh). If this Geeni bulb is as-advertised, then it should only cost about $3/year to operate. So this bulb will easily pay for itself in the course of a year. So far, I've been paying the premium for Lifx multi-color bulbs, but lately, I've been seeing this Geenie brand at more and more stores. They are currently on sale for $15 from Best Buy; meanwhile, the Lifx bulbs (albeit multi-color) are close to $45. It was worth the risk at 1/3rd of the cost. Now, one might be inclined to stick with a single brand of smart light, but Google Assistant integration makes that far less important. All smart lights, regardless of brand, will show up in the Google Home app and respond to "Hey Google" on the various Google devices. Unfortunately, Geeni is not compatible with Apple Homekit, but it remains accessible through the Google Home app on iPhone. The light doesn't seem quite as bright as the Lifx bulbs, and one of the Geeni bulbs has been flickering oddly when I tune it to a mid-white tone on 100% brightness. The other Geeni bulb has not done that. Hopefully I don't have a defective bulb, but I'll give it some more time before seeing if I need to make an exchange. Overall, not bad. No hub needed and they are relatively inexpensive. One last general tip: make sure you're buying "BR30" bulbs if you have recessed ceiling lights vs "A19."

    I bought this light to go over kitchen sink. It was easy to install and quickly connected to our Echos. When I said "Alexa, Good Morning" this morning it turned on with other lights. Changing the temperature from warm to cool is especially nice to match the lighting already in the kitchen.

    Mixed Bag

    I bought three of the these: two for an alcove that are grouped and one for the small hallway off the laundry room that has the switch in an awkward spot. One of them works flawlessly - turns on and off using two set schedules without any issues. One loses part of the schedule and has to be reset from time-to-time. And one is just plain defective and will be replaced by geeni so I'll hold judgement on their overall quality once I get the bad one replaced. Otherwise they use the same app as the plug and don't require a hub so I'm fine with working through the quirks of these bulbs since I know they have the potential to work they way I want.

    I have one of these for my front door and it works very well. I bought another for my back door floodlight and it does not fit in that socket type. Called Geeni and they did not recommend using it with a socket extender. Had to return it
