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.

How we light our homes hasn't changed much since the light bulb was invented. But now a Canadian company has created strong, flat lighting panels with a dazzling array of colours and tricks that go up easily in your home; you don't need a drill, or an electrician to install them either. Find out whether Nanoleaf Aurora could be the smart and fun lighting solution you've been waiting for.

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?
