Layers of new smart light bulbs: Lumen Bluetooth 4 LED bulbs listed

In the field of smart bulbs and color LED lighting, PHILPS Hue is one of the most well known, but this does not stop the enthusiasm of other start-ups on the development of smart bulbs, and Lumen is one of them. TL800 Bluetooth 4 LED bulb successfully raised enough to raise funds through all the way to raise funds, has now successfully listed. Consumers can directly through the iPhone or designated Android equipment for its control.

Lumen TL800 priced at $69.99, its size is the same as the conventional bulb. Manufacturers claim to be able to output the equivalent brightness of 40W (400 lumens, PHILPS's Hue is 600 lumens), and the service life can reach up to 30000 hours. Its built-in white, red, blue, green LED, can provide 16 combinations.

In terms of manipulation, unlike PHILPS's Hue, the Hue requires a connection to the WiFi route and the ZigBee mesh network as the base of the interconnect, and the Lumen requires only a direct connection between the phone and the bulb (via Bluetooth).

Of course, there is also a negative side to do so, that is, each TL800 LED bulb can only be connected to 1 devices at the same time. A single cell phone can adjust up to 10 bulbs at the same time, but there is no shared control function in Hue applications.
