Innr RB 175 Watt LED Energy Saving Light Bulb 9 W E27/A + +

Have been using this bulb with my Hue V2 bridge now for just under a month and its been brilliant!I am using this in the hallway with a Hue Motion sensor, in the early evening it produces a bright warm white light (when set to maximum brightness), later in the night its set to a dimmer option which produces a much warmer light, with a very slight hint of orange I'd say (this I have set at perhaps a quarter of full brightness). This is much easier on the eyes and is perfect for creating a more cosy ambience when winding down in the evening. This is just what I needed as I was previously using the more expensive Hue colour to mimic this exact effect!!The colour temperature is automatically controlled by the bulb depending on how bright you have it set at. As you dim down, the colour temp reduces. You only have the function to control the brightness when using this bulb, this I knew and is stated in the product description.This is my only Innr bulb so far and first impressions are great. One difference I have noticed when comparing with the Hue bulbs, is that the Innr bulb doesn't appear to have 'soft on/off'. The Hue bulbs will dim on and off over maybe half a second second when powered on or off, whereas the Innr is an immediate on or off like you would experience with a wall switch.Its an excellent cheaper alternative for the Hue bulbs with good colour temperatures for a basic non colour changing bulb with dimming functionality.Paired easily and first time, you must only switch on the Innr bulb once searching for a new bulb in the Hue app has commenced, as per the instructions.Very tempted to purchase another couple for some lamps in the house, they would work very well!

I would recommend these over standard single colour temperature bulbs, and the automatic warming works really well. You can not manually set the temperature, it automatically moves to the 2200K value as you dim the light. There is a new Innr bulb that does allow manual setting at any brightness level and I will be trying one of those next to see how well it works, reviews of the Hue equivalent state that you can tune the temperature but the brightness drops considerably as you go to the warmer colour... i.e. no different to the Innr bulb in effect but more expensive.

Works fine, though had to change light's "call sign" for Alexa to include this lamp. Cheaper than the Philip's lamps.
