Smart Bulbs & Lamps

Smart bulbs and lamps are LED lamps controlled with a phone app, for example to set their colour, colour temperature or brightness. The Knightsbridge range covers RGB and CCT smart lamps controlled over Wi-Fi in GLS, GU10 and candle shapes, with ES, BC, GU10 and SES bases, each dimmable and adjustable from 2700K to 6500K, plus the SpektroLED Evo, a fire-rated smart downlight set from the SmartKnight app.

Choosing Smart Bulbs & Lamps

Choose a lamp by its cap and shape first, then check the Wi-Fi network it will join.

Wi-Fi lamps by cap

The GLS9ESKW is a 9W RGB and CCT ES GLS lamp for a 230V supply, and the GLS9BCKW is a 9W RGB and CCT BC GLS lamp. The GU5KWB is a 4.5W RGB and CCT GU10 lamp, and the CL5KW is a 5W RGB and CCT SES candle lamp. All four set their colour and colour temperature from a Wi-Fi app, adjust from 2700K to 6500K, and are dimmable.

Wi-Fi band

The CL5KW, GLS9BCKW and GU5KWB work with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only, and the CL5KW and GU5KWB support IEEE 802.11 b/g/n. Check the router during setup: consult the router manual for the CL5KW and GLS9ESKW, and adjust the router settings for the GU5KWB.

Smart downlight

The SpektroLED Evo SPKEVFKRGBW is a fire-rated smart downlight whose RGB and CCT are adjusted in the SmartKnight app. It is fire-rated for various construction types (30/60/90min), and its IP65 rating makes it suitable for dry and wet locations. It runs on 230V direct to the fixture with loop in, loop out connectors, fits with a magnetic bezel, is complete with a white bezel, and has a 5-year warranty included.

Frequently asked questions

Can you put a smart bulb in a lamp?

Yes, as long as the bulb's cap matches the lamp holder, such as bayonet, Edison screw or small Edison screw. Leave the lamp's own switch on so the bulb stays powered, and avoid lamps with a built-in dimmer, which can make a smart bulb flicker. Dimming and colour then come from the app. The range here includes Wi-Fi smart lamps with a bayonet, Edison screw or small Edison screw cap.

What is a GU10 smart bulb?

A GU10 smart bulb is a spotlight lamp with a two-pin twist-lock base and wireless control built in. It can be dimmed or changed in colour from an app, and it replaces a standard mains spotlight lamp without rewiring. Check the fitting takes a mains holder rather than a low-voltage one. The range here includes a Wi-Fi spotlight lamp with colour and tunable white.

How do smart bulbs work?

A smart bulb has a wireless radio and control chip built in, so it can join a home Wi-Fi network or smart hub and take commands from a phone app. The app can switch it on and off, dim it and change its colour or white tone. Setup usually means pairing the bulb with its app. The range here includes Wi-Fi bulbs with colour and colour temperature control.

What is a smart bulb?

A smart bulb is an LED lamp with wireless control built in, so it can be switched, dimmed and changed in colour without new wiring. It fits a standard lamp holder like an ordinary bulb. Some smart bulbs also tune white light between warm and cool tones. The range here includes smart GLS lamps, a candle lamp, a spotlight lamp and a smart fire-rated downlight.
