INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The following instructions are applicable to adding your Smart LED bulb to an Alexa Device that supports BLE Mesh bulb.

Sengled Smart Bluetooth Mesh LED bulbs are created for Frustration Free Setup. If you have purchased the bulb from Amazon using the same Amazon shop account as your Alexa App account, and had selected
“Link to my Amazon account to simplify setup” before paying for them on Amazon shop, you can install the bulb close to your compatible Alexa device and power it on. The bulb can join the Bluetooth network automatically.
You can also try the traditional way to set up bulb by asking “Alexa, discover devices.”
After the bulbs get discovered and connected with the Echo device, you will receive a notification from Alexa app. You may also receive a voice prompt from your Echo device if you have a single Echo device at home. Mesh Network Setup
If you want to have multiple bulbs setup for different rooms, especially rooms out of the range of the Alexa device’s Bluetooth signal range, you can utilize Mesh Network setup to extend the range.
- First, Setup the smart bulbs close to the Alexa device.
- Switch off the bulb and move it further away from the Alexa device and make sure it’s within Bluetooth range of another active Bluetooth bulb, which is connected on the network as a node. This will form a Bluetooth Mesh network. Each connected bulb will connect with other bulbs (nodes) within the range.
Congratulations on successfully set up your smart bulbs!

Can this light go in porch?
This light can go where any standard light bulb goes. You must have Alexa for it to work with voice commands.
How do I get these to work with the Alexa app on my phone?****
I just assigned them to a room and go to the Alexa app and turn them on or told Alexa what to turn bulb on.
Does it work with google?****
Not, this one, it only works with Alexa.
Does this product work with iHome?****
I’m not sure what iHome is but I use it with my echo dot. And it also has its own app that you download to your phone, that works well too.

Yes… you can tell Alexa to Dim or Brighten the light by a certain percent.
Example… Alexa dim TV light by 50% … will reduce the current brightness by
half.

I have an Echo but in the Alexia app the bulbs are listed separately. My guess is they would work without the echo but then again it might need the echo to connect to the WIFI.

The bulbs works with Bluetooth and with Alexa the smart plug works on a 2.4ghz not the 5ghz.
