if you don’t have it it’s hard to appreciate what it can do. The colours are a bonus, but not why I use it - it’s mainly for the smart features: my lights wake me up in the morning, come on just before I arrive home, turn off when I leave if I accidentally leave them on, if I get out of bed between 1200 and 0600 one turns on automatically (using motion sensor) at a low red so I can see where I’m going without burning my retinas, I schedule them to turn on at times throughout the day with an element of randomness to make it look like people are home whilst I’m on holiday. Lastly, when I click on an activity for my harmony remote they are a part of it, they dim down automatically if I’m going to watch a movie.

These are the most useful features to me (but there are more), colours is just what I use to show them off to people if they ask about them, but I’d say I use them about 10% of the time. Of course, the energy they save goes on top of it all.

It’s 300 lumens by the way, which is as bright as any other desk lamp I have here.

Perfect

Maybe, but I don`t have any.
I can`t personally see the point of coloured lights in ones home. Unless for a brief time during a party?
And I can`t see that this is a `table lamp` To me a table lamp usually provides direct light so you can read or eat and indirect light so that you don`t need to turn on the main room lights. This is too dim to provide indirect lighting to a room and is barely able to provide enough light to read by (for instance) going by the Amazon video you need to sit in near darkness to appreciate it anyway. Its use with email etc is useful of course.
Voted hot for the price! :smiley:

People saying they're only getting 1.5 hours or so out of it. Bit pathetic given the size of it.

Shame, I'll hold out for the Bloom to come down again. Heat anyway good price.

Schweet :-)

You can leave it plugged in too.

I got one of these on a lightening deal and they're great. Well with the money :smiley:
