Smart Bulbs & Lamps

Smart bulbs and lamps here are Wi-Fi LED lamps that change colour and colour temperature from an app, plus a smart downlight. Examples include the Knightsbridge GLS9ESKW 9W ES GLS lamp, the GLS9BCKW 9W BC GLS lamp, the GU5KWB 4.5W GU10 lamp, the CL5KW 5W SES candle lamp and the SPKEVFKRGBW SpektroLED Evo fire-rated smart downlight.

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

What are smart light bulbs?

The smart light bulbs on this page are four Knightsbridge LED lamps. The GLS9ESKW is a 9W ES GLS lamp, the GLS9BCKW a 9W BC GLS lamp, the GU5KWB a 4.5W GU10 lamp and the CL5KW a 5W SES candle lamp, and every one of them is an RGB and CCT lamp controlled from a Wi-Fi app. The four lamps adjust from 2700K to 6500K in colour temperature and are dimmable.

How do smart bulbs work?

The Knightsbridge smart lamps are controlled from a Wi-Fi app, which sets their colour and colour temperature. The CL5KW also dims through the app, and the GLS9BCKW dims from your smartphone. The CL5KW and GU5KWB use IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi on the 2.4GHz band, and the GLS9BCKW is compatible with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks. The SPKEVFKRGBW downlight is adjusted from the SmartKnight app.

Can the smart lamps give white light as well as colour?

Yes, the GLS9ESKW, GLS9BCKW, GU5KWB and CL5KW are RGB and CCT lamps, so the app sets either a colour or a white colour temperature between 2700K and 6500K, and all four are dimmable. The SPKEVFKRGBW SpektroLED Evo downlight also adjusts RGB and CCT, from the SmartKnight app.

Is there a smart downlight for a fire-rated ceiling?

Yes, the Knightsbridge SPKEVFKRGBW SpektroLED Evo is a smart downlight fire-rated for various construction types (30/60/90min). It is IP65 rated for dry and wet locations, runs on 230V direct to the fixture with loop in, loop out connectors, has a magnetic bezel and comes with a 5-year warranty.
