Specifications
With its product SMART+ Bluetooth Full Color and Tunable White , the brand Sylvania presents an innovative smart home solution for intelligent lighting control. We have categorized this product as bulb.
Communication
A smarthome device only becomes truly smart when it integrates and communicates with other devices. For this task, Sylvania relies on the following technologies to ensure communication and possible automations:
- Wireless Bluetooth connection technology
Supported functions
The following features/functions are supported by this device:
- Control the light conveniently with your smartphone or the Bridge - switch it on or off as required.
- Adjustment of the light intensity.
- Adjustment of the color temperature settings to warm or cool shades of white.
- Multiple colors can be selected in the smartphone app.
- The lamp can be adjusted so that it shines in a clear white.
- Over-the-air updates
- Automatic switch-on behavior.
Third party integrations
Don't want to use the integration/bridge that the manufacturer Sylvania specifies? That's not a problem. See the list below for all verified integrations that work with SMART+ Bluetooth Full Color and Tunable White :

Light
With many lamps, the color temperature can be adjusted via app. In this model, the color temperature ranges from 2700 kelvin to 6500 kelvin. The unit lumen is a measurement to determine the amount of light emitted per given time. Conversely, this means that the higher the lumen, the brighter a lamp shines. As a rule, for example, 500-600 lumens per square meter are sufficient to illuminate a bathroom. For comparison, the SMART+ Bluetooth Full Color and Tunable White is given as 700. Typical light bulbs from the old days usually consume about 25-40 watts per hour. The smarthome light described here SMART+ Bluetooth Full Color and Tunable White gets by in comparison with 10 w. However, it is important to note that Sylvania is free to define this specification within certain limits. It is therefore possible that the power consumption may deviate slightly when the light is on at full brightness.
Design
The first step is the sustainability check: The installed light sources are permanently installed by Sylvania 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.
