Love this video. You turned a negative install experience into a fun, relatable video that kept us engaged to the end. You captured the frustration of any “tech that makes your life EASIER” purchase that doesn’t quite work as conveniently as you thought. My favourite part was “hey Alexa… change to Aqua, hey Alexa, hey Alexa” 😆 loving these new format videos!!
Making this video last week definitely tested my patience when I started running into problems but it was a fun to make this. Thank you for taking time to check this out!
This is probably the crispiest smart light review out there, 👍🏼. I love LIFX products, owning about 50 of their devices, but I have had some difficult setups a few times. Most of the time it goes smooth though.
I bought some lifx strip a couple years ago and connecting them to the app was easy. My strips ended up breaking somehow and I bought a new kit. Now when I try to connect them to the app and is forcing me to a Apple HomeKit connection. I do not have HomeKit and do not want HomeKit. What’s the deal with that? How can I just connect these things without the app asking for a HomeKit code.
@@visionarywatts Yeah i ended up trying about 10 times. each time i waited about 20 - 40 minutes on the "preparing device" screen. i ended up returning it and i got the govee glide instead, hopefully that works
Man I’ve been there. Frustrating when the tech you invest in brings more frustration than good. Here’s to having the wind in your sails to keep moving forward and coming out on the other side of that ebb and flow.
haha my body temperature definitely elevated a few times this past week while trouble shooting/ stressing over this light. I'm really glad I got everything resolved because a lot of reddit comments were like, "nope! return!"
I sold my Lifx beam back in the Winter, but man, I'm really looking to get it from a third party since it's discontinued. The lighting isn't even comparable to the Govee Glide in my opinion. Problem is, I had nothing but trouble setting the thing up moving to and from University.
I don't have the Govee glide yet. That's on my "soon to purchase" list. I just looked at the LIFX product page for the first time since I bought it a year ago and I can't believe they upped the price to $190! oh my god! Run away! I still have problems with this LIFX light to this day.
yea they really cornered the market with this but I recently noticed the Govee Glide Wall Light. I''ll have to check that out in a couple of months, especially since it goes on sale for $84

They still don’t offer individual pieces. I love the light bar but setting it up is a pain.
production quality and vibes are immaculate
Much appreciated!! 🙏🙏🙏
Man, this felt premium. Never heard of Lifx beams, don’t need to troubleshoot Lifx beams. Still enjoyed every second of the video 🙌🏻
Thank you sir! I’m sure you’ve seen them in plenty of UA-cam home office videos or IG pictures!

I might do something like a bulb next. That’s easy lol. Thanks for checking this out!
Hey man how's the light going all this time later?
Love the beam man! 🔥
Saw it in yours and plenty of other peoples videos. Had to get one myself haha

Mine didn’t do that so I have no idea. I only used the LIFX app when I wanted to customize things.
Just bought these, stuck on the "preparing device" screen. How long did it take for you?
That happened a few times. I started it all over again.

@@gavynazka1264 I don't have a clear answer. It was a struggle for me as well. support.lifx.com/en_us/hardware-resetting-your-lifx-ryXKbdiLO
I have a good amount of LIFX lights and they do have a tendency to go offline randomly. Unfortunately, LIFX has the most vibrant lights in the game.
