Communication
A wide variety of technologies can be used to control the Smarthome light, each of which can have its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, control via Wifi can be integrated into an existing network over longer distances, but consumes more power than, for example, Zigbee or Bluetooth. Wifi is therefore only suitable for devices that are permanently connected to the power grid. LED Strip 5m Alexa Smart RGB WiFi supports the following technologies:
- Bluetooth

Light
Typical light bulbs from the old days usually consume about 25-40 watts per hour. The smarthome light described here LED Strip 5m Alexa Smart RGB WiFi gets by in comparison with 12 w.
Design
The first step is the sustainability check: The installed light sources are permanently installed by Govee 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. Govee chose plastic as the casing material. The color was kept in white. This light weighs 220 g.
