» » The LIFX Color 1000 (A19) are Wi-Fi smart LED light bulbs, that are multicolor (up to 16 million colors and 1000 shades of white), and dimmable. The best part, these bulbs integrate with a ton of 3rd party applications, my favorite IFTTT! With IFTTT.com integration, it opens up a massive world of potential for the smart bulbs, using If This Then That statements.. here are just a few examples:
-Each time I receive a new text message, flash the lights red.
-Whenever I come home, auto turn on the lights, and when I leave, auto turn off.
-I can easily integrate with the weather, so if it’s about to start raining outside, bring down the lights and turn to a cool blue.
-I can even use these as simple home security assistant when I’m away; every so often toggle the lights on and off throughout my house to make it look like someone is home.
Honestly, the sky’s the limit to your ideas and infinite possibilities!
These bulbs also work great for shooting photo and video in my studio. Each bulb shines fairly bright, 1055 lumens. I have full dimming control, plus Kelvin settings, so setting white balance is a breeze and helps match other lights very quick and easy.
If you think of any other sweet IFTTT integrations or ideas, let me know down in the comments. Thanks for watching!

it’d make more sense if your channel name was authentech. as a viewer I don’t recognize the channel name and sometimes don’t click the video
can bulbs be added to more than one group?
Thank you! With this I am feeling confident on getting my hands on a few. Looking forward to play around with IFTTT too!
Does their lightstrip work with IFTTT?
omg, I was just now searching Lifx and saw you already covered this topic! thanks!
Thank you for a truly excellent presentation, life without LIFX would be lifeless!
would these always be a strain on wifi or just while using the app?
Does this work on any lamp???
Those lights compliment your complexion at the end
Are they worth it? I mean like for the price…
What is the lamp you have @ https://youtu.be/oxSBRmA0h0s?t=21 I would like to have something like that at my place.
Not a fan of _even more_ devices that’ll bog down the wifi, but these are really funky! Love the IFTT integration too. They seem a bit pricey (though on average for these type of bulbs, unfortunately) – especially for heavy users. I have a couple IFTT idea: a flash for a daily run reminder; or, how about turning on the foyer/hallway lights near the door when the doorbell rings? Are you going to designate these as studio lights? Would be interesting to see how that works out.
Great video
Where is it made? No way I buy made in china stuff. Philips hue failed heavily for making them in china with cheap rgb unable to reproduce many colors. Have a nice day.
how many bulbs can you combine maximum
I have 13 of these and counting!
I dunno about IFTTT. I paired my WeMo switch to my LIFX bulbs with IFTTT and the delay from trigger to action is insanely long. Lighting at night is a personal safety issue and I can’t be waiting a minute or more to have my lights turn on after I flip the switch. That being said, the LAN protocol via the app works almost instantaneously, so I think I’ll try to mess around with Home Assistant on a RasPi to get these two devices to talk to each other locally instead of having to wait for an interminably long round-trip across the Internet.
It’s an interesting product… I like a lot… I thought that this type of technology was something more expensive and far far way from us LOL… It’s an amazing review.

Love it. I wonder if I have it. Good video
What WiFi access point were you using, and did you connect them over 2.4 or 5Ghz?
What is the date when the VAVA Bluetooth Speaker Giveaway end?
idea 1 from abode reddit: Use bulb as status indicator of security system status. Idea 2: dedicate a secondary router (don’t we all have an old one laying around by now?) for wifi smart home stuff like this. Use different wifi channel than primary router.
