I have very few lights in my house that take bayonet bulbs, mostly ceiling lights that have E14 clear candle bulbs or GU10 downlighters. What's my alternative?

does the yeelight work with alexa? just curious? id buy these, but 120 is a tad too much... always have concerns over cheap Chinese electronics, but may risk it for the price difference!

Yes. The Yeelight works with Alexa and Google Home. Have them both working with Yeelights just fine. On/Off - Change Colour etc.

Cold. Packs now come with the light switch. As another user has stated, Amazon had these up for £89 2-3 months ago, will drop again.

Do they ever have the GU10 pack on promotion ( 3 with hub). Got a whole lounge to kit out

Haven't seen one yet. I have an alert on the Camels as I'm in the same situation but with a bathroom.

Yes they were a couple of months back, but be careful with the colour ones. I found out to my cost the colour gu10's are too long to fit. I have 2 sitting in a box. Managed to use 1 in a lamp I had. The white and ambiance ones fit fine and as having different colours doesn't matter to me, they work really well for changing brightness/mood

I'm just about to have a lounge installed with some new spotlights so have a free choice of light fitting. Any suggestions as to light fittings that will take the colour GU10s? I managed to pick up 6 bulbs off eBay for £160

You just need to make sure the depth is good enough to take the bulb without it sticking out of your ceiling. I'm not sure on exact fittings sorry as i'm no good with diy

Great price, bought mine for £129 last week.
Highly recommend.

Wait 4 Black friday if in no hurry. These will be under £80 I guess. They were £89 on prime day deals. I paid £120 for mine including motion sensor so this to me is no deal

I don't understand. What's so special about light bulbs that it seems a deal to pay £120 for a set you can change colour on?
Has this world gone mad?

Try them and find out (or visit a friend with some). My electrician said the same thing until he saw / used them.

I'm sorry but I'm not one of these people who sees my ordinary 50w plain white light bulb as boring or lacking features so I don't think I'll ever be tempted to spend 120 quid on some fancy colour changing bulbs.

In that case may I suggest you at least get some energy efficiency ones :wink:

How about 21 quid on 3 Xiaomi Yeelights, though? Similar functionality as Hue and the added advantage of needing no bridge to work (so just the bulbs needed) They have regularly been on offer from the usual Chinese e-commerce sites and plenty of deals for them have been on HUKD recently. Even the 'normal' price is only 13 quid per bulb. Philips take the pee with their pricing...

Plus remote control, and voice. Or by schedule or event. It is just useful, sometimes.

But you can buy cheap timer switches for a pound. I don't know i guess I'm just one of few people without 120 quid spare to spend on colourful light bulbs :grin:

You can set the timer on your phone. 120 is a lot of £££

Good price for these. The bayonet ones never seem to be on offer. Having recently purchased Yeelights for about £8 a bulb, I’m struggling to see how they can have such amassive mark up on these.

Yeelights aren't as bright so in some situations you would need more than one. Reasonable as an alternative though.

Reasonable alternative? The Yeelights i originally bought (3) cost approx 85% less than this Philips Hue starter pack! A very real and sensible alternative would be my view...
