LIFX Lights Up the Dining Area! The Smart Bulb Conundrum

LIFX arrived today!  Yes - I now no longer need to flick a light switch I can madly chat away to Google and get her to do it for me......which is actually pretty handy when you are carrying a whole load of shopping or have your hands full of dinner plates and any other stereotypical parent scenario that you can identify with.

LIFX was easy peasy to install.  Just pop out your old bulb and put your new one smart one in - brilliant.  Asthetically speaking they are much pretty than my old energy efficient bulbs and whilst I read some reviews complaining about brightness I can catergorically confirm that the LIFX bulb is much brighter than the bog standard one that was there before.



I now have successfully linked LIFX to my Nest products after having to have a good hunt for where the 'intergrations' menu was in the LIFX app I realised that I hadn't properly claimed the bulb.  So claim the bulb - then link to Nest and then onto Google Home Assistant.......seamless!  Check out my short video on the funky Google voice command.
