    I like how "easy plug and play installation" is a thing for lightbulbs.

    • malouphix on 23/09/2015 - 11:02

      Does this need something extra to control from the app on a smart phone?
      Like a gateway or control box?

      Thank you.

        Hi,

        Yes it does require a Z-Wave controller

    $70 for a light bulb?
    highway robbery

    • otter-raptor on 23/09/2015 - 11:08

      I never really understand the fuss about these new wave of smart bulbs as well … My life will be complete once I get a fancy new gadget with smartphone controlled hue and brightness .. yay \S

        True. The real value only lies in hooking it up to home automation, and they really need to be <$50 I reckon.

    i personally wouldnt buy from them again. they were great when i was buying about $800 worth of stuff to trial out before i was going to outfit the whole house. but once i started running into issues (z wave limitations i guess) they started ignoring emails. there are plenty of other places that sell this premimum niche stuff

      Hi,

      We would never intentionally ignore any customer emails, we apologise if you feel you have been ignored.

      If you still have any issues, dont hesitate to contact us and we will try and help you out.

    • Jinster on 23/09/2015 - 12:10

      Why would you expect the seller to troubleshoot technical issues for you? You may have spent $800, but the store probably only made $100 out of it after cost, if that. I just think it's unfair to blame them when your issues are to do with z-wave limitations.

    • shake on 23/09/2015 - 12:22

      This is probably off topic - but would you mind telling us what sort of limitations you ran into?

      I'm interested in Z-wave, but at the same time quite skeptical about its real world utility/performance.

      • joshua_cia on 23/09/2015 - 12:57

        my issues have been timing, eg light sensor triggering lights to turn on will vary from 1 second to 20 seconds. door unlocking will trigger lights to turn on between the same time. i know its not much but in that time, i might as well just turn it on in the dark so to speak.

        other issues are remotes not working etc.

        • shake on 23/09/2015 - 17:03

          That's disappointing. If the response times are indeterminate and fluctuate so much, then that really detracts greatly from the user experience.

          I wonder if this is a problem with the Z-wave ecosystem in general, or if it's isolated to your hardware. At the end of the day if it's hit-and-miss, then most people won't be bothered.

    @jinister
    no i dont expect them to troubleshoot if it was my own inability to read instructions, however, when it was purchased, they said it could do a particular function. but i assumed it might be a case of the fundamentals of the zwave, im not sure, its my assumption. but with communication just dying off, i dont find them favorable. secondly automation is a relatively "new" thing to australia, a little support to gain awareness wouldnt go awry i suppose. and one of the remote just wouldnt respond at all and they cant explain why. ive essentially written it off (the remote)

    i havent Neg the deal, all im saying is customer support may be a bit lacking

    @electricky
    i have sent 3 emails to dylan and 1 to samuel. all have been ignored. should i still bother sending to them?or will support only last until this deal expires again?

    • Store Repelectricky @ Electricky on 23/09/2015 - 12:43

      Hi,

      I suggest you use our websites contact form as this is the email that is monitored for support.

        i have been in email dialogue with both Dylan and Samuel before they stopped replying.would you be able to explain what will starting a new dialogue explaining all the issues all over again will prevent them from not responding when they feel its getting "too hard"?

    OP will this work with US Smartthings hub (V2) or is it locked to Aus Z-Wave frequency?

    • Store Repelectricky @ Electricky on 23/09/2015 - 13:01

      Hi,

      Yes it is only Australian Z-wave frequency (921.42).

    "Plug this E27 Edison Screw bulb into any compatible light in your home" - Most Australian homes use B22 fittings…

    • Russ on 23/09/2015 - 17:28

      DON'T BE TEMPTED TO USE E27 TO B22 ADAPTORS.

      There's a reason why no store sells these in Australia - they're lethal.

      A properly-wired E27 socket should have neutral wire going to the screw thread - but with the adaptor, either wire could be connected to the thread, you have a 50% chance of creating a lethal situation.

      If you are screwing an E27 light bulb in, it is easy to accidentally touch the screw thread. This is already in contact with the screw thread in the socket - if it's connected to the live wire, you're dead. If the shock doen't kill you outright, the fall from the ladder or chair probably will.

      (Yes, I know you would also have to have the light switch turned on. Australian law doesn't assume that all the right steps are followed in the correct order. Would you rather it takes two mistakes to kill you, or only one?)

      In the US, where E27 is universal, the voltage is only 110V. This is far less dangerous, most shocks from 110V won't kill you. Australia has 230V to 250V, far more dangerous, that's why we had to create better connectors and tighter rules. In my opinion, E27 fittings should never have been allowed in Australia.

        • Russ on 24/09/2015 - 10:12

          You've got me there, that one looks like it might be reasonably safe, because the thread appears to be made of plastic. Do you have one, and is the entire thread made of plastic?

          My warning still stands for the vast majority of adapters available from China and on Ebay, ones that look like this with a metal thread:
          http://www.amazon.co.uk/JACKYLED%C2%AE-Converter-Adaptor-ada…

          Note that even though this is a "Fulfilled by Amazon" product, they won't ship it to Australia. I'm guessing that's because it doesn't have approvals for Australia.

          Most of the similar devices on Amazon UK also won't ship to Australia, but I did find one that would:
          http://www.amazon.co.uk/skytronic-401-090-Socket-Converter-B…
          This one says "Conforms to BS EN60238", which apparently means "For mechanical strength the thread may be extended to front of the skirt in plastic, but with the bulb in place it has to be impossible to touch any live metal, and on removing the bulb, before the metal threaded part shows, the back contact has to have been broken."
          That quote came from here:
          http://www.theiet.org/forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=205…

          I'll change my future posts on this subject to "the vast majority of E27 to B22 adaptors are unsafe". Which is true for OzBargainers, they are most likely to look on Ebay for an adaptor.

        • SickDmith on 25/09/2015 - 00:36

          @Russ:
          I am going to get one to check. But it's a little bit of driving. So it's not that urgent. :)
