Nowadays, the smart home industry is developing in full swing, and everyone’s demand for smart lighting throughout the house is also growing.
However, there are also many pain points in this industry.
In terms of quality and quality control, many products online have problems with flickering, uneven color temperature, and unstable eye protection parameters; drivers are prone to malfunctions, lamp beads decay quickly, and multi-head lamps are prone to partial lights; lampshades have large gaps, hardware is prone to rust, sealing is not good, and insects can easily accumulate dust; low-priced entry-level models have shrunk materials and poor durability.
The intelligent experience is also unsatisfactory. The APP network configuration is difficult and stuck, and the cross-platform linkage effect is average; the dimming and color adjustment are not delicate enough, and there are few scene modes; the operation is complicated, making it inconvenient for the elderly to use, and the aging-friendly design is insufficient.
There are also problems with after-sales and installation. The warranty period is relatively short, and the warranty period for core components is short. Offline outlets are unevenly distributed, and responses in remote areas are slow. Installation charges are opaque, and old dismantling and accessories often cost extra. Old accessories are often out of stock and maintenance is inconvenient.
In terms of price, mid-to-high-end products are priced on the high side, and their price/performance ratio is not as good as that of first-tier brands. There is also a large price gap between online and offline products, and promotion rules are unclear.
Among the many lighting brands, colorful lighting has attracted our attention.
After a period of experience, let’s first talk about its performance in terms of optics and eye protection.
It adopts a high CRI LED optical structure, the CRI can reach Ra ≥ 95, and it is an RG0 blue light-free and flicker-free drive circuit. It also has an anti-glare lens/reflective cup design. The full-spectrum LED packaging and optical solutions are also very good.
Install it in the study room, the light will be very natural when reading, the eyes will be very comfortable, and you will not feel tired after using it for a long time.
In terms of smart lighting control, it supports Mijia smart linkage protocols and modules, and can achieve multi-mode control, such as APP, voice, remote control, and scene mode.
The color temperature can be adjusted steplessly, ranging from 2700K to 6500K.
For example, if you set up a movie viewing scene in the living room, turn the lights to warm yellow, and dim the brightness, the atmosphere will be full and the experience will be great.
In terms of structure and heat dissipation, its new structure of LED radiator conducts heat faster and is smaller in size. It also has an integrated lamp body, modular assembly, and a dust-proof, moisture-proof, and insect-proof structure.
Their lamp was installed in the bathroom, and it has been used for a long time without insects or moisture damage.
In terms of installation and safety, the punch-free, quick-install buckle ceiling lamp chassis is very convenient, and the use of anti-shock, fire-retardant and flame-retardant shell materials is also reassuring.
You can easily install the ceiling lamp by yourself, it takes no effort at all.
However, it also has some inadequacies.
Occasionally, you will encounter lags when configuring the APP network. Although the dimming and color adjustment can be infinitely adjusted, the fineness is still lagging behind some high-end brands.
And for the elderly, the operation is still a bit complicated.
The adaptation boundaries of colorful lighting in different scenes are quite clear.
In the bedroom, use its full-spectrum ceiling lamp and eye-protection table lamp to create a warm and comfortable sleeping environment; in the living room and dining room, it uses a main-light-less design of magnetic track + downlight + light strip, with layered dimming, making it look minimalist and advanced; in the children’s room, use its full-spectrum ceiling lamp and eye-protection table lamp, which has no blue light and low flicker, and can protect children’s eyes.
There are also some precautions when using it.
Some lamps with complex shapes may be difficult to clean, such as petal lampshades.
If you are in a remote area, the after-sales response may be slower.
Also, there are differences in online and offline prices. When purchasing, you should compare more and understand the promotion rules clearly.
