My favorite smart bulb is a steal for Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days Sale

I recently decided to ditch all the traditional lighting in my home and replace it all with smart bulbs, panels, and switches. Govee is one of the best brands in the smart lighting business right now and has made a name for itself as an affordable alternative to other smart lighting brands like Philips Hue. However, I needed something other than a smart bulb for my living room. I needed verticality.

Meet the Govee floor lamp.

This lamp is quite expensive at $150, but right now Amazon is offering it for only $100 a few weeks before the Prime Big Deal Days sale. Keep in mind that the silver version is available to everyone for $100 when you buy the coupon on the page. But only Prime members can get the black version for that discounted price. With these two options, you can pick the version that best suits your home and aesthetic and still enjoy a solid smart home deal.

Like most smart lighting, the Govee floor lamp uses RGB LEDs to provide virtually any color you want. We chose green to complement the green in our living room, but it also changes depending on the time of day. What I like about this lamp is its low profile: you can barely see it, just a small base and a thin line of metal. The focus is on the light rather than the structure.

Another big selling point is the connectivity to other Govee products. If you Govee Backlight for TVs You can pair all your Govee lights to work together while watching a movie. It’s really fun to have all your lights sync up with a movie like Dune or Mad Max: Fury Road. Even without the backlight, you can easily control all your lights with one app or Alexa and Google Assistant.
