Love the Luna as all other products. Super bright for the size. Would love to see a Ipx 6+ version along with dc power option for using outside and camping

I like these lights a lot. But if there was a larger or longer option to it that would be great. The ceiling light you have but make it wall mountable as well. And a tv sync kit would be lovely.

Overall pretty happy, but I would like the following updates:

-Make strips in black so they are less visible on tv.
-curved edges that stick to tv and not floating.

This thing is so rad, it's honestly cooler than I expected. The wall mount is unusually shaped, in a good way, so that when we take the Luna off the wall and set it on a shelf, the mounting hardware looks like a little decorative detail instead of an empty piece of hanging equipment. The effects are great, the dimming goes from extremely faint to BRILLIANTLY bright, and the ability to "paint" the colors on the image using the app is a lot of fun. Also love the physical controls so we can use it without having to take out a device or have some kind of "agent" listening in.

I'm stunned by how bright this thing can get. I opened the box and saw how small it was, only to be blinded by the brightness! I have it as an accent light on my corner shelf and it looks badass!

Er ma gerd! Love them! They create amazing ambiance in our living spaces. And they are under the island and behind the TV so they create this wonderful spaceship glow. The only deficit, is bending a corner is clunky and creates these odd pyramid triangle corners where part of the strip is pointing out, collecting dust, etc. I wish there were joints or something to help make cornering easier.

I've loved this light fixture so far. Not sure why others have had difficulties with the app, I've had no problems. My only concern is it does run a lot warmer than I expected that type of bulb. I just ordered a 2nd one for the same room.

Do I need a hub or bridge to use the lightstrip and bulbs?

No. LIFX Lightstrip and Smart Bulbs connects directly to your home Wi-Fi (2.4GHz band) via the included Wi-Fi controller, so there's no separate hub required. Just download the LIFX app to get started.

Can I cut the lightstrip to fit my space, and how long can I extend it?

Yes — the lightstrip can be cut to length between LED zones, but once cut, that section can't be reconnected or extended further, and cutting the lightstrip will void the warranty, so this should only be done at your own risk. If you'd rather not cut it, you can add length using the LIFX Lightstrip Extension packs and optional extension cables, which also let you route the strip around corners and gaps. In total, it can be extended up to 10m/33' with a maximum load of 30W.

Can I use the Lightstrip and Bulbs outdoors or somewhere damp, like a bathroom?

No. LIFX Lightstrips and Bulbs are designed for indoor use only and isn't suitable for use under dust or moisture, so it should be kept away from outdoor areas, bathrooms, or other damp environments. There is a dedicated range that is suitable for outdoor use.

Which voice assistants does it work with?

All the major ones: Alexa, Google Home, and Siri, right out of the box, no extra setup required.

Can I schedule it to change automatically throughout the day?

Yes. Build routines that shift from cool daylight for focus to warm 1500K light for wind-down, all running automatically once you set them.

How is these different from the LIFX Everyday bulb and Lightstrip?

These are our SuperColor range. SuperColor gives you billions of colors plus the full white spectrum for maximum creative control. Everyday is simplified to tunable white only, for straightforward practical lighting.
