Lombex Lux Nova [Tunable White] [B22 Bayonet] | 10W LED Wi-Fi Smart Light Bulb | No Hub Required | Warm & Cold White, Dimmable | App Control | Timer Function | Compatible with Alexa & Google Home

This lamp was bought to supplement my existing smart lamp system.Following ordering, the bulb arrived prompt, next day deliveryThe lamp is faceted making it look quite distinctive.Set up is very easy, full instructions are provided and available on-line note this is my fourth smart lamp so I was familiar with the procedure.As a summary guide, the lamp power must be switched on and off until it begins to flash then from the Lombex phone app, it can be added to the wifi network then renamed depending upon where the lamp has been installed. It is then simply a case of asking Alexa to ‘discover’ the new added lamp assuming as in my case the skill is already in use.The lamp can then be controlled from the app or the Alexa app / device.The phone app provides a high degree of controllability over colour and brightness as well as colour change effects as well as timers and the ability to group lamps together into scenes for example switching all lamps on when arriving home is useful.I haven’t had the new range lamp long but my first impressions of it is that the quality of the light impressive.The colours seem to be more distinct than the earlier lamps and the increased power means it is brighter.I am very happy with the functionality offered by the app the control options and not forgetting the ease of set upI recently had a smart lamp fail. The Lombex team offered outstanding after sales service replacing the defective lamp for me. This gave me good peace of mind and confidence to purchase other lamps.

Great Bulbs. I Set mine up in literally five minutes (or less) for each bulb!! IMPORTANT NOTE!!!..... I had problems when RENAMING a couple of bulbs. Despite renaming my standard lamp bulb, Amazon Alexa did have a few issues. To cut a long story short (and to save yourself LOADS of time), NAME EACH BULB with completely DIFFERENT, DISTINT names. I tried LOUNGE1 and LOUNGE2, which caused some confusion by Alexa, despite “Rediscovering all Devices” after renaming the bulbs. Mine are now called simply....LAMP, TALL, WINDOW and LANDING. There is no confusion now and Alexa controls them perfectly EVERY time. Keep the naming simple. Don’t give the bulbs long names. Use a SINGLE WORD NAME if you can (less words to keep saying to Alexa each time too). TIP FOLKS......Check the bulb are reading EXACTLY the same name in both the LOMBEX APP and in Alexa Smart Home. Superb colour choices. I’d like them to be brighter, but they are only 60 Watt equivalent after all. So pleased and impressed by these bulbs and I would (and have) recommend them 100% to others. Just take care with unique, distinctive naming of them. DONT FORGET TO LEAVE THEM SWITCHED ON!! and control them with the solely with the Lombex App, or via Alexa. I always use voice control on them. IF you FORGET and switch them off at the wall or lamp switch, they WILL GO “OFFLINE” and won’t work - THEY MUST BE LEFT SWITCHED ON. I Hope this helps anyone whose having any issues in using them.

I really like I can control this bulb from my phone. I have it in my hallway, so I can turn it off when I get into bed, and if I wake up in the middle of the night and need to go to the kitchen or loo, I can turn on the light before I leave my bed. It's also proved really useful if I am working or out late- I can have the light turned on for me before I get home. It was easy to install and had no problem with the app. The one thing I didn't like was the light arriving broken- well the top was off of the bulb. I managed to snap it back on and so far so good, but it did make me wonder if it would fall off! Still, I'd like to buy more for the home. Good product at a good price!

Compared with other similar products, no bridge is required to turn on/off, dim, or change colour. All can be done straight from the Echo Plus (built in hub).Not sure why one would realistically wish to change the colour of their bulb - I thought at first the red would be a romantic setting whereas it actually feels like I should be developing film.Dimming the bulb is nice and easy ("Alexa, dim living room light to 10%.") However I don't feel like it dims it enough. Dimming to 1% is still relatively bright, and a corner lamp provides the same effect.With that said, I do recommend the product. It works as advertised and I will likely buy another as I expand Alexa into other rooms of the house.

Had a bit of an issue getting the WIFI to work and almost gave up, but after some very gracious customer support I gave it one more go. Using my phone (S7 edge) it would not pair (router set to 2.4 ghz only) but I then I tried using a tablet (S2), doing exactly the same thing, and it worked. It seems to just not like my phone for pairing, but the app works fine on it now the bulb is configured. Now the bulb is set up it is very good and is brighter than the brand it replaced. Had I used the tablet to start with this probably would have been 5 stars

I am very pleased with this bulb, despite the expected initial set up problem of having to use comparability (AP) mode. This seems a common issue with every smart item I’ve bought, so I’m now used to playing around to get things to work.The bulb is bright and even the coloured options are bright enough to illuminate a room. The shape of the bulb seems to give a good overall spread of light, unlike some other makes where the light is mostly directed diwnwards. All in all I’m very pleased and will buy again when it’s on offer. Works very well with Alexa.
