Tapo L530B(2-Pack) B22 Smart Bulb Multicolour Dimmable LED Light Bulb

Really impressed with these smart bulbs. Setup was straightforward and they connected to Alexa without any issues. The colours are bright, there’s loads of different settings to play around with and being able to control them from your phone is really handy. Great for changing the mood in the room or setting timers and routines. Been reliable so far and definitely worth the money.

This is nowy fifth Tapo device, and once you set up the first, all others take seconds to set up in the app. Alexa set up is immediate and works well. Google seems to be trickier and flakier, once set up with Google you need to go into Google home, select the d vice again, and then it is set up, not just when you add it to Google in the TAPO app. I cannot speak to the usage time as yet as I have only had my Tapo devices for a couple of months for the old st, however if I find any issues I will update this review. Tips if this is your first TAPO device: 1: download the app first, before turning anything on, plugging anything in. 2: Turn " location" on your phone on, the app asks like it is an option but the software cannot "pair" the device without location, don't ask me why, makes no sense to me either, I have already written to the developers to ask them to fix this but had no reply as yet. 3: if you are adding to Alexa, simply follow the in app instructions. If you are adding to Google ( so you can say ok Google , Turn living room lights off) then follow the in app instructions, and then when set up is completed, go to the Google home app on your phone, and add the device there too, otherwise Google won't find it/ them. 4: leave your wall switch on, because it's only function now is to power the device, the wall switch will not turn the lights on any more, use Alexa/ Google commands or the app on your phone. If you switch the wall switch off, Google/ Alexa and the app will not be able to turn the lights on. I have been reassured by the manufacturer that when Google/ Alexa or the app turn the lights off, they are no longer drawing power, so leaving the wall switch on will not cost you money if you told the light to be off. Update: One thing to note is that if you change your wifi, you need to add each device back again so have your wifi password memorized. A tip for people in older properties with different wiring looms... To reset your tapi device ces ( bulbs, light strips) you follow a little game of " off and on" in the app. That means s it plays a little animation of a bulb with the light on and the light off and you have to manually turn the light switch on and off 3 times for a soft reset or 5 times for a hard reset, in time with the animation. If your wiring looms is a tad older, you might find this doesn't work, and if you contact support they advise you to manually unscrew and screw in the bulb in time with the animation to ensure that when the animation says off, your bulb is disconnected and actually off, however... I found that you can forge tottering on a stepladder to faff about with the bulbs, simply by slowing everything down, turn the light on when it says, turn it off when it says but keep it off for 4 seconds, or two " off " animations, repeat twice more for a soft reset and works like a charm. Now I don't know why, but my father who is an engineer said something about the old wiring but then got technical and my brain turned off, but this method worked for me, I told support what arrived had done to solve the issue ( because the regular soft reset worked fine in parts of the house and I realised where it was working were areas where the electrical wiring looms had been changed, where it wasn't working are areas still on the old electrical) and I mention it here in case anyone else is having difficulty after a wifi change or their soft reset isn't working or their hard reset isn't working, my method might work for you and may be preferable to unscrewing and screwing back in all your bulbs. Hope that makes sense.

This Tapo Smart Bulb B22 is a fantastic option for those looking to add some smart lighting to their home. It's easy to set up and use, and offers a wide range of color options. Pros: * Easy Setup: The bulb connects easily to your home Wi-Fi network without the need for a separate hub. * Voice Control: Works seamlessly with both Amazon Alexa and Google Home, allowing for convenient voice control. * Color Options: The wide range of colors and adjustable brightness make it perfect for setting the mood for any occasion, from relaxing evenings to lively parties. * Energy Efficient: Being an energy-saving bulb, it helps to reduce your electricity bills. * Good Value: The price is competitive compared to other smart bulbs on the market. Cons: * Occasional Connectivity Issues: While generally reliable, there have been occasional instances of connectivity issues. * Brightness: While sufficient for most purposes, the maximum brightness might not be as intense as some other bulbs. Overall: I'm very happy with the Tapo Smart Bulb B22. It's a user-friendly and affordable way to add smart lighting to your home. The color options are impressive, and the voice control integration works well. While minor connectivity issues and brightness limitations exist, they don't significantly detract from the overall positive experience. Recommendation: I highly recommend this bulb to anyone looking for a budget-friendly and easy-to-use smart lighting solution.

These bulbs do the job nicely. They connect easily to the app, and switching between the different colors is great for setting a mood. However, since most normal bedrooms only have one central light socket in the ceiling, using just one of these bulbs isn't really bright enough to light up the whole room on its own. It leaves the space feeling a bit dim.

I recently picked up this 2-pack because one of my original Tapo bulbs eventually reached the end of its lifespan after heavy use. Honestly, I didn't even think twice about switching brands. These are, without a doubt, some of the easiest smart bulbs I've ever had the pleasure of using, and this recent purchase only reinforces that. Ease of Use & Setup If you are intimidated by smart home tech, this is the bulb for you. Setup is completely foolproof. You simply screw it in, download the Tapo app, and follow the on-screen prompts to connect it to your Wi-Fi. The app itself is delightfully simple, clean, and intuitive. Integrating it with my voice assistant took seconds, and it has been incredibly responsive ever since. Size, Weight, and Colour Physically, the bulb has a clean, minimalist white base that doesn't look ugly if exposed. It conforms to standard A60 bulb dimensions, meaning it fits perfectly into standard lamp shades and ceiling fixtures without sticking out awkwardly. It is also surprisingly lightweight (weighing in at around 70 grams), so it won't make your smaller desk lamps or floor lamps top-heavy—a common issue with older, bulkier smart bulbs. The light output itself is fantastic: it's plenty bright, the colours/temperatures are vibrant, and it dims beautifully without any harsh flickering. Value for Money The value here is simply outstanding. You are getting premium smart lighting features at a fraction of the cost of higher-end competitors like Philips Hue, especially since these come in a convenient 2-pack. Pros: No Hub Required: Connects straight to your existing 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, saving you from buying extra equipment. Flawless App: The Tapo app is user-friendly and great for setting schedules or routines. Perfect Form Factor: Standard size and very lightweight; fits all standard fixtures easily. Great Value: Fantastic price-to-performance ratio for a 2-pack. Cons: Like all electronics, they do eventually die (though my first batch lasted a very long time before I needed this replacement). As they are Wi-Fi based, they require a stable internet connection to use the smart features (if your Wi-Fi drops, they just act as normal switches). Who is this for? If you are wondering, "Do I need to be a tech expert to use these?" or "Do I need to buy a smart hub?", the answer to both is no. If you want a reliable, cost-effective way to automate your home lighting, schedule your lamps while you are on holiday, or just turn off the lights from the comfort of your bed, I cannot recommend these enough.

There appears to be a fault of sorts. Where the router goes off and comes back on the Tapo devices do not reconnect to the effect that all the Tapo devices are disconnected simultaneously. The only way I've found to get them connected is to restart the router. Other than the small fault the bulb works faultlessly and is easy to fit following the instructions in the Tapo app

I went shopping on Amazon for another make of smart bulb but decided to try these because they were a good price. I'm so pleased I did they are just as good as more expensive smart bulbs. I found them easy to install and to operate with my Alexa devices. I'm so impressed I purchased two more.

Nice and easy to set up in the Tapo app, controllable by both Alexa and Google, and works well with any custom Alexa routines. Not particularly bright, but does the job. I bought a two-pack of these to replace another TP-Link bulb that had failed after 7 years from the Kasa range, which seems to be getting less love in favour of Tapo by the company. Annoyingly, the first bulb failed after only 12 months, nowhere near the 15,000 hours it is rated for, which, given my usage, should have lasted about 5 years. I also bought some Tapo spotlights, and I had to replace one of them within a year or so, so I'm not convinced these are as good as the Kasa range. Maybe just some bad luck, but I'll see if any more fail, as the product is good when it works.

Niquel Fonctionne correctement super pratique Et rapide à installer

Very good lights come and work as described work the fastest and are most responsive with the Tapo app.

Reliable as always. Love Tapo products

Le lampadine hanno smesso di funzionare, dopo solo un mese di utilizzo

Before buying make sure you want the ones with the correct connection, these aren't normal screw on bulbs.
