    I have two sets of these and I reset the bulbs and the remotes to try to fix them after one set stopped working and now neither will pair. Very frustrating. Anything else I can try?

    Can I connect 12 Mittled 18” lights to this one remote control? Each light is 5 Watts. The video shows 10 light bulbs to one light, but it looks like those light bulbs are wireless so I’m not sure if it’s different. Thank you!

    For ppl who are confused you have to light your lightbulb then nearly touch the light bulb while pressing the link button for 10seconds. It's supposed to shade then it'll change to another color and it's finally linked.

      I have two bulbs and one remote. They worked for about three months and now they will not sync at all. I have reset bulbs and reset remote control several times and they just will not respond. I’ve changed battery is still no difference.

    If this isn't working for you. Try changing the battery even if it's "new". I bought a new replacement remote on Amazon bc I lost mine. It wouldn't work, changed the battery to a non amazon one and it paired.

    Removed and replaced battery, then pressed and held link button inside remote until bulb responded. Don't stick to the wall, or you will have difficulty opening cover on back of remote. You will also leave at least part of the adhesive patch on the wall.

      @@ist1jano Pressing pair button 4 times will make the red light turn on, meaning the remote is factory reset. Now get the remote within 3 inches of the bulb, then press and hold until the color changes on the bulb. DO NOT LET GO until the color changes, you'll see it dim and get brighter, but don't let go. After what feels like longer than 10 seconds, it will flash brightly then the bulb will change to a warmer color. NOW it's paired.
