Both 60w/100w are good, don't mix them though
These are nice for controlled ambiance. 1 tip - if you care about color uniformity, do not mix the 60w & 100w bulbs in the same grouping, the shades of warmest white are completely different colors. @ warmest white 60w = yellow, 100w = white

A few setup tips
Very nice, very fun. Good value and easy to set up. Some hints for setting up with Alexa using an iPad:Uncheck 'ipad only' in the AppStore, then download the BrightFun appRegister on BrightFunMake sure you're on a 2.4 WiFi network (not 5.0)Plug in lightbulb and turn on/off 4+ times until bulb starts flashingEnable the Smart Life skill on Alexa appMany colors, adjustable brightness. I'm living in the future! I'll be buying more as gifts. The light is de-light-ful:-)

Yes they are 100w equiv!! Awesome but could be a bit warmer.
I have about 8 LED bulbs in my loft, all 100w because I have high ceilings and there is very little bounce - 60w looks like 40w.For this reason, I have never bought smart bulbs, even though I am a heavy Alexa user (I use regular 100w equiv LED bulbs on a WeMo switch), because I could never find any bright enough - until now.When I first installed them, I was upset because they seemed like 60w max - but then when I cranked up the brightness in the app, they were definitely as bright or brighter than my regular 100w equiv LEDs. My only complaint is that the white isn't warm enough, even on their warmest setting, they aren't as warm as the regular LED bulbs I use. I was on the fence about taking a star for that.That said, I'm keeping them, because otherwise they are great, and if the coolness really bothers me in the bedroom, I will just put them in my kids room.They were dead simple to setup with their iOS app and then with Alexa, and was delighted to find out that they 'dim out' rather then 'just switch off'. I was a little bummed that some of the features of the app didn't make it into the skill (like the feature which cycles the colors automatically) - but this is minor complaint.As with most smart bulbs, the colors make for relatively dim lighting and are of limited utility, but still very cool.

The light bulbs are COOL!
The light bulb connects pretty easily with the app and the results are awesome!There are different modes to choose from.For example Reading mode, party mode, night mode, and a few others.My favorite mode is reading, it feels so relaxed.There are a good variety of colors to choose from as well and they can all be dimmed or bright!I will definitely be using them my cousin's upcoming surprise birthday party, can't wait!

works perfectly with Alexa
I have a switch in the kitchen area that controls two lights so I was hoping to find a product with 2-pack packaging so that I know the colors and brightness would be relatively identical. Setting these up was very smooth using the SmartLife app on Android. I was able to set up both light bulbs at the same time. Once the bulbs are registered, discovering them in the Alexa app just take seconds. You can use the app to turn on/off the bulb, set its color and brightness, and it also has pre-defined settings called scenes that allow changing color frequently without the need of your intervention. You can also set schedules to turn on/off the bulb. I've had these for two weeks now and haven't run into any issues.

Honest review. Terrible...
Why do I say these are terrible? Here you go:Listing says these are 1,050 lumens, the box says they are only 850. 850 lumens is like a 60 watt bulb. These are NO WHERE NEAR the stated 100 watts in the listing.When you change to a color they dim to the faintest light. I contacted the seller and they stated the colors were 0.2 to .5 Watts. That’s less than a 10 watt incandescent bulb, to give you an idea how dim they are.There is no way to change from a warm to a cool white. These have a yellow undertone.I’ve contacted the seller multiple times and they are very, very slow to respond. When they do, they are not helpful.Lastly, and probably the reason for all of the positive reviews...this seller gives you a ‘free gift’ of 2 smart plugs, if you leave a positive review for their product. I feel a lot of the reviews give you a false sense of quality and features just so they could get a freebie.

read thoroughly all directions
1st of all the brand-name is not on the box that it comes in. Next the instructions are the font that is extremely difficult to read without additional light and magnifying glass. The photographic illustrations are useless as they are too small to see. After following the simplified instructions at least 7 times it failed to connect to Wi-Fi through the Bright Fun Appwhich I already had installed on my phone.finally I gave up and secured the light. The next morning, I turned it on and started the directions again. One more time before I would send it back. The 2nd time through it finally connected.After connecting the product works as advertised.The procedure to change your Wi-Fi from 5 gz to 2 .4 gz is not clearly explained in the App you have to do it by trial and error. This step should be included where it tells you to select your Wi FI.I have not had to make the selection with other LED Smart balls that are purchased.I feel that this aggravated process of connecting.
