I can only recommend you not to buy LIFX bulbs.

I have one and it has been widely unreliable from day one.

It does not default to on when you use the light switch, so you always have to use the app to interact with it. Half the time, the app fails to detect it. The rest of the time, it can take random amounts of time for it to respond.

It also likes to randomly light up red in the middle of the night or to flicker very rapidly (absolutely unbearable).

I have just removed it and replaced with a dumb light.
