Home lighting is boring, right? I mean, there’s not much to it. You have light bulbs, and they can either go on or off. Well, that’s not the case when it comes to Smart Home lights, which offer incredible versatility and customization, plus the ability to control them with your smart devices from anywhere. Check out my review of one such lighting product: the Ilumi Lights.

Playbulb's LED String lights give you smart functionality via a Bluetooth connection; you can turn them on or off with your smartphone, adjust colour to dozens of different subtler hues, you can set timers, or use a handful of special effects, all automatically.

Best Buy may be packed with the latest technology, gear and accessories from your favourite brands. But did you know it’s also the place to find some of the most innovative products launched on Kickstarter?

Adding wireless coloured light to your home is a relatively new concept, with a lot of new players out there. There are the established brands like Philips Hue, which have commanded a premium on the market, partially because they have brand recognition for being first, and partially because they’ve made a great product. MIPOW PLAYBULB is an entrant into the market that offers a lower cost way to put wireless coloured lighting into your space. I have three products that we’re looking at today, read on to see how they fared in my home.
