Review by C. Cantu for Color Changing LED Bulb (BULB ONLY)
Rating:
I ordered 4 of these bulbs. Three stand alone and one with a remote, the remote works with all of the bulbs. This is exactly what i needed. They are not the brightest but it will work for what i need, some low back lighting.

Review by DizziD for Color Changing LED Bulb (BULB ONLY)
Rating:
We ordered a couple of these as a test after deciding that the nearly $200 “Living Colors” lights were more than we were willing to spend for what could end up being a novelty. They’re not bright enough to light a whole room individually, but they are plenty bright enough to create a beautiful accent or be used as an incredibly cool night light.
The remote control for the individual bulbs is functional but basic, and while the bulbs can be “programmed”, we found it to be challenging at best, and primarily use the one-button functions on the remote to either make the light a specific color, or leave it in the slow, constantly-color-cycling state.
They work in dimmer-controlled sockets, but you have to be careful to crank them up to full power quickly or the results can be unpredictable. They won’t run “dimmed” – but they will function just fine as long as you power the outlet fully. Anything less will probably damage the bulbs over time.
A pair of them works beautifully over our big, sunken bath – it’s really cool to be able to have mood lighting there, and the almost “thick” quality of the light is very pleasing. It saturates everything very richly.
Interestingly, the purple range of color on the bulb functions just like a black light. We were amused to see that all of the brightly colored plastic containers on our countertop were glowing like neon signs one night as the bulb cycled through the violet hues.
All-in-all a cheap way to have a unique accent.
