dimmable LED bulbs that give you more
0:02
illumination for less power let me show
0:04
you hi Dave tail here again and I'm in
0:15
my kitchen this time because I have
0:17
these two convenient lights right here
0:18
and these lights actually have San C LED
0:23
bulbs in them now there's two different
0:24
kind of bulbs the back one is just a
0:27
nice bright this is what's called a warm
0:31
white LED this is a 15 watt draw but
0:35
it's giving me the illumination of a
0:36
hundred and twenty five watt bulb this
0:38
is very nice and what's cool about it is
0:41
it's dimmable I have spent so much time
0:44
waiting for all these LED bulbs to be
0:47
dimmable because I like dimmers on all
0:49
my light switches so finally this has
0:51
that it has no flicker it's a 3000
0:55
Kelvin illumination versus they also
0:58
have a daylight one and that is a 5000
1:00
Kelvin if you know what I'm talking
1:02
about you're like cool and if not you're
1:04
like I have no idea what that is that
1:06
sounds like something out of some bed
1:07
Star Trek episode and you're probably
1:09
so speaking of bad Star Trek episodes no
1:12
that's not right click the subscribe
1:14
button I heard it great thank you so
1:17
much awesome now you can see my other
1:18
videos but we're not done here this one
1:21
is actually my favorite it's just really
1:24
nice and simple and I'll show you here's
1:26
a close-up of what the bulbs look like
1:27
they're pretty alien looking but they
1:29
were great and a 15 watt draw for 125
1:33
watts of illumination that is a
1:35
no-brainer I could put these all over my
1:37
house now each bulb is $21.99 but
1:40
there's a 20% discount right now at
1:42
amazon.com so you should check it out
1:44
and look through the page because they
1:46
have lots of different discounts from
1:47
sanh see this one might be more
1:50
interesting to you though for me it's
1:52
just like it was a cool novelty why
1:54
because it's Wi-Fi and it comes with an
1:58
app and I can you ready for this change
2:02
its color so lots of fun things you can
2:06
do you can even have transition
2:08
sequences and stuff but the thing of it
2:13
it's really a fun idea for a while I
2:16
mean for kids maybe this is a fun thing
2:18
to have when your friends over and you
2:19
want to have a really dark purple or
2:21
something so it does actually have
2:23
something like 16 million different
2:24
colors and this one is an equivalent of
2:28
a 60 watt bulb that draws 10 watts of
2:31
power so again super super power
2:34
efficient it's an LED of course it's
2:37
dimmable just like this other one and
2:39
what else gonna tell you the app they
2:43
have an iOS app and they have an Android
2:45
app I've only tried the iOS app and to
2:48
say that it's clumsy is generous it's
2:50
just not a very well thought out app
2:52
which again to me a little bit sort of
2:55
leads me to I'll just leave it as a
2:57
regular bulb but you know for a kid or
2:59
for someone that really wants to have
3:01
that occasional mood or something then
3:03
you can really play around with it now
3:05
the downside is it is Wi-Fi enabled it
3:08
is on my Wi-Fi network but it doesn't
3:12
work with Alexa it doesn't work with
3:14
Google home it doesn't work with apple
3:16
so it's really its own little tiny
3:19
universe so yes you do have you know a
3:23
bulb that lets you turn it off remotely
3:27
so that's cool but if you're trying to
3:30
build a bigger smarter home then this is
3:32
an interim step this is not an end
3:35
solution and this one's $25.99 but it
3:39
also has a 40% discount right now on
3:41
Amazon I don't know how long that's
3:43
gonna last but that's a pretty
3:45
substantial discount for this and again
3:47
one of the cool things is not only can
3:49
it change color but if you have multiple
3:51
of these you can synchronize them so in
3:53
the app you can change all of them
3:55
simultaneously and there is some sort of
3:57
music mode that listens to music off
4:00
your smartphone I didn't really get much
4:01
success with that so I don't know maybe
4:04
it works maybe it doesn't but honestly
4:06
they're both really cool I really like
4:09
the LED sans he's done a nice job with
4:11
the design of both of them and I really
4:13
really like the energy efficiency of it
4:16
but this one's the winner I can put this
4:18
into fixtures that are only rated for
4:20
like 60 watts and draw way less than 60
4:24
watts but get a huge amount of alumina
4:26
and that's a huge win in my book because
4:28
it's nice to have illumination right so
4:30
let's turn that bulb on again and this
4:33
is Dave Taylor and I will see you see
4:36
I will see you in my next video
