Smart Light Bulbs

Smart lighting is convenient and fun, and it can help you save money on your utility bill. So how do you find the best smart light bulbs for your home? Here are some benefits to think about as you plan your next lighting move.

You can program and adjust your lighting with apps. Many smart bulbs and smart lighting systems have apps that allow you to program when your lights turn on and off and let you change light intensity, color and more. In many cases, you can easily control your lights with your smart phone or tablet — or with your voice via smart speaker.

In terms of bulb type, A19 light bulbs are the most common size and shape for table and floor lamps and certain kinds of light fixtures. Some users enjoy using wake-up lighting features (and also use a backup alarm clock radio) in their bedrooms as well as smart lighting setups in their home theaters.

Smart lighting can integrate smoothly with other aspects of your smart home. And we’re not just talking about ambience and entertainment.

Connecting the right smart bulbs can help you enhance your home security system. You can sync your smart lighting with your smart doorbell, smart door locks and outdoor security lights for a comprehensive security solution.

Using a smart hub or bridge allows you to group lights together for powerful and immersive effects. With the right smart bulbs and a little creativity, you can make your home even smarter.
