About this product

Designed for those looking to add colour and convenience to their living spaces, these bulbs are compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to control them via voice commands or through the intuitive Tuya app. They’re perfect for creating a relaxing atmosphere in the bedroom, adding a festive touch to the living room, or simply adjusting the lighting to suit your mood.
Each bulb packs a 5W LED design delivering 350 lumens of light with a generous 100-degree beam angle, consuming significantly less energy – up to 85% less than traditional bulbs. Installation is straightforward; these GU10 bulbs are compatible with standard spotlights and fixtures, requiring no complicated hub or gateway setup. The RGB colour changing functionality lets you explore a spectrum of hues, while the dimming capabilities allow for precise adjustments, creating everything from soft ambient light to bright, vibrant illumination.
Connectivity is key with these smart bulbs. They operate on a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and support both iOS and Android devices through the Tuya app. You can group them together for synchronized control or schedule lighting changes for added convenience. The bulbs are designed for indoor use at 230V and offer an average lifespan of 15,000 hours thanks to their energy-efficient LED technology.
Please note that these bulbs only support 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks and are compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant. They require the Tuya app for initial setup and ongoing control, and while they’re designed for easy use, they are only suitable for GU10 fitting fixtures.
