TP-Link Tapo Smart Light Bulbs, 16M Colors RGBW, Dimmable, Compatible with Alexa and Google Home, A19, 60W Equivalent, 800LM CRI>90, 2.4GHz WiFi only, No Hub Required, Tapo L530E(2-Pack)

These are similar to the old Kasa KL-130 bulb, but add several cool new features. For instance, there is now a "party mode" that can use your phone's microphone to make a light show with your bulbs, or the bulbs can just cycle between several colors on their own. They also updated the sunset and sunrise times to allow up to 5 hours before or after instead of only 59 minutes. You can set your lights to turn on or off up to 5 hours and 59 minutes before or after sunrise or sunset, so you have lot's of flexibility. The old KL-130 bulbs had an "away" mode, but they took it away when they made the switch to the Tapo app. The away mode is available from the main screen on these Tapo lights. When set to Away Mode, these lights will randomly turn on and off making it appear like you are home when you are away. The fade feature has also changed. The Kasa KL-130 can be set to fade up to 60 minutes. This Tapo light can only be set to fade up to 30 minutes. That being said, the 'fade' on the original light was stepped, so around every few seconds it would get brighter or dimmer and you would noticeably see it 'step'. The Tapo light does this much more smoothly. The pairing feature also seemed different to me although it's been a long time since I've set up the KL-130. I'm pretty sure those used Bluetooth for setup, and these use Wi-Fi instead, and that's where people are probably going to have the most trouble. During the pairing process, it will ask you to pair your phone with the light. If you have a phone like my Pixel 7, you will need to turn off your cellular network connection while doing this, or the phone won't pair to the light and setup will fail. They are also only 2.4Ghz, which can also cause people issues if they have newer phones. This is kind of a bad setup experience, but for me it was no big deal. That being said, I wouldn't buy these for someone else unless I was prepared to help them set them up. Overall, the light color and brightness is indistinguishable from the older KL-130 bulb to my eyes regardless of the color setting, so I'm not replacing all of my old bulbs just yet.

I love these bulbs, I've bought several now. I originally purchased them because my kid's lights and fans are on the same switch, so rather than pulling the chain to turn the light off if we want to leave the fan on at night, we can turn the light off from our phone. They also like to play around with the colors. I was also going to purchase new dusk-dawn fixtures for my outdoor lights, but I put these bulbs in instead and they work perfectly. I am able to set them on a schedule to turn on at sunset and turn off at sunrise, or you can adjust based on sunrise/sunset (for example, turn on 10 minutes before sunset), or set your own time. It's also fun being able to do different colors, like red white and blue for 4th of July. I also set one up in the hallway outside of my office working from home to have a red light when I'm on a call or cannot be bothered, and a green light at the end of the day when it's okay for the kids to come in while I wrap a few things up. So we've found a lot of uses for these bulbs and have had zero complaints. I've had no issues connecting to wifi or setting up any of these lights, even the ones outside remain connected. One of my kids flips their switch on and off repeatedly, which resets the light but even that is as simple as reconnecting to the lights wifi signal, and the light will retain all of its settings once it's paired again. Initial setup is very easy, connect your phone to the light's wifi signal, select the type of bulb and it's good to go. The bulbs react instantly when changing a setting from the phone. The Tapo app is pretty easy to use, we also have it for our video doorbell and cameras outside, so all of the lights and cameras are on one app, and we're very happy with all of it now about a year in. We've also had temps down to -20F and up over 100F and the bulbs outside have had no trouble.

These lights are great! One drawback, which took me some time to figure out is their wifi antenna is significantly less effective than other wifi devices; probably about 50% reduction in effectiveness compared to my phone. I had devices on my front porch and garage which in worst case were about 35' away from my TP Link range extender (which is working great unlike other range extenders I've tried) and they kept cycling betwween online and offline. Turning the front porch / garage light switch off then back on seemed to resolve the problem for about 1 minute, then 3 of the 4 devices fell off the network again. The one light that didn't seem to have this problem was the closest (about 15' away) to the range extender. All 4 devices reported no bars in the RSSI (signal strength) area of Tepo app (just the dot was illuminated at the bottom of the 'bars' icon). Moving the range extender about 15' closer to the 4 bulbs resolved the problem. Signal strength reported one bar for all four bulbs and now they work reliably. Range extender is on our hallway about 5' from the front door, whereas when they weren't working the range extender was about 20' from the front door.

These Tapo smart bulbs are fantastic! Setup was quick, and they work flawlessly with Alexa and Google Home. The color options are vibrant, brightness is perfect, and scheduling is super convenient. Energy-saving mode is a bonus. Great value for the price—highly recommend for anyone looking to upgrade their lighting!

بعد مرور ٤ شهور اصبحت لاتعمل بشكل جيد ( تشتغل و تطفي من نفسها ) .

The light was super easy to set up in the tapo app with the reset of my device connecting to the Wi-Fi was straight forward. Colors are perfect. The only thing is I would increase the brightness for the light to be better.

Compatible with Alexa. Works on iPhone as well but you will have to download a separate application. Doesn’t connect directly to the iPhone Home app.

Se conectan muy rápido No tienen fallas como las demás marcas Tengo todo de la misma marca y en una sola aplicación
