Questions & Answers

Do these bulbs work with the Amazon Echo/Phillips Hue-Lux system? Thank you.
Asked by williaminsd December 29, 201510
AnswersNo sorry it doesn't work with those
what is a hub and does the light come with one
Asked by eric August 5, 201810
AnswersNo, the light does not come with a hub. A hub is a smart home controller. It interfaces with some of the devices that do not directly communicate with Alexa. This bulb needs a hub to control it. I use the Samsung SmartThings hub. The new Echo Plus (Alexa) includes a hub so you don't have to buy it separately.
What does 'connected' mean? I see they cost more than the same bulb not listed as connects
Asked by Jack October 30, 201610
AnswersYou can control it with a ZigBee compatible device like wink or SmartThings
WHAT DOES CONNECTED MEAN
Asked by ANTHONY January 7, 201610
AnswersContrary to what a previous reply said, these do not have a WiFi transmitter. They run on the Zigbee protocol, which is compatible with many home automation hubs (notably Wink and Samsung SmartThings). So, you need a central hub to control them. Through those hubs you can control them by events (sunset/sunrise, time, manually, etc.) and you can also control them through an Amazon Echo which talks to either of those hubs.
Can I connect this directly to alexa dot.
Asked by JD January 2, 201910
AnswersNo you need a zigbee hub such as Wink or Smarthings.
Is this bulb a BRIGHT WHITE???
Asked by Marilu June 3, 201810
AnswersThis bulb is actually daylight white. I have to turn their brightness to 50% in order not to wake my wife up at night as I walk into the hallway to the bathroom at night.
Do you have to be home to control the light settings (since it has an app)?
Asked by Cici September 27, 201810
AnswersYou don't need to be home to control these connected bulbs as most likely you have one of the many home automation hubs in your house.
Will these work with the Phillips hue?
Asked by Marlon December 11, 20159
AnswersNo, hue hub only works with hue bulbs, but it will work with wink or SmartThings Hub. They don’t conflict with each other, so they are compatible in the same home
I have a smartthings hub and an echo dot. If I put this bulb in a lamp, I know I can hook it up ...
Asked by GiGi January 17, 20197
AnswersThe CREE A19 can do all, you can connected with the Smartthings app, name it, asked echo to discover new devices and your done. The CREE A19 was not reliable, constantly needed to be reconnected. I would not recommend definitely does not perform as well as Phillips Hue. I eventually switched over to Phillips Hue and now things run problem free.
do these work with alexa?
Asked by James April 2, 20197
Answersyes, but I use a Wink hub.

This Bulb Just Makes Sense!

As a single female working long hours at times, having an affordable light system such as this, that was easy to set up as well as program the lights all around my home to automatically turn on

January 2, 2018
Terrific product. I screwed the Cree bulb in and Alexa took over, opening and closing lights at my voice command. Or I could just dim lights to any percentage of maximum by naming each light and just asking--for example, "Alexa, dim First Light to 15 percent." Next, I am planning remote control so I can turn on or off or dim from anywhere in the world!

March 28, 2017
I have had this in use for about 10 days and am absolutely enjoying it. I bought the daylight bulb as I like the more natural lighting than the softer white look. It was easy to pair with the Lutron remote in just minutes. Being dimmable allows me to control the brightness as needed.
I have an older house and the previous fixture I had had a pull cord. This Cree bulb and the remote made it possible to get away from the pull cord without having to pay expensive rewiring costs from an electrician. Great product and I would recommend purchasing it.

Works fine. Bought 4 of these to work with the Wink 2.0 hub. Easy pairing. No problems turning on/off with the mobile app. Dimming function works great.
Overall seems like a great buy for the cost- only reason I gave it 4 stars was not knowing the longevity. If I can update this review I will when the first one fails.

February 13, 2017
This bulb works well with my Osram Litify and also my Amazon Alexa. I have it in my hall light fixture and it is so nice not to have to reach for a switch . I just ask Alexa to turn on the hall light. It really brightens up the light fixture. I can also dim the light using the app on my IPhone. I have had it about a month and plan to buy another one. I wasn't sure if it would work since it isn't the same brand as my original bulb but it's great.
Amazing Customer Service Too!
October 16, 2020
After 3 years of using this bulb on my front porch in Oregon (ie wet and cold environment), I moved out of state and eventually tried to re-pair this bulb with my SmartThings hub (v2). The hub didn't recognize the bulb, so I assumed the bulb was broken. I had 2 such bulbs and the other one was still paired with the same hub and worked flawlessly. Upon working with Cree tech support, they sent me a replacement bulb free of charge since it was within the 10 year warranty period. It's great to see a company stand by it's product!
But there's more - the replacement bulb wasn't pairing either, and upon eventually figuring out the problem (I had an Echo Plus around which also talks Zigbee and was interfering, so I unplugged it), I got both the old bulb and the new replacement one to pair with ease. So not only does Cree stand behind their product, they also make a quality product!
