Light
The light source is capable of generating a color temperature of 2700 to 6500 kelvin. The brightness (lumens) of the Smarthome light was specified by Ledvance with 350 lumen. For comparison, an average halogen tube has a value of about 410 lumens with a power consumption of 40W. Typical light bulbs from the old days usually consume about 25-40 watts per hour. The smarthome light described here Smart+ Spot GU10 Multicolor gets by in comparison with 5.5 w.
Design
The first step is the sustainability check: The installed light sources are permanently installed by Ledvance and thus unfortunately cannot be replaced. Although LEDs consume less power and have a longer lifespan, this is very annoying, especially for larger devices. With bulbs that have the electronics directly installed, a change by the manufacturer is difficult to implement. This is unfortunately a pity, but currently unavoidable. Ledvance opted for plastic/glas as the housing material and presented it in the color white. Please take into account a product weight of approx. 80 g.
Protection
The IP rating classifies and evaluates the level of protection that mechanical and electrical enclosures provide against ingress, dust, accidental contact and water. These smarthome lights are classified as IP20.
