Not sure what horror stories you have heard but supply is not too bad in Australia, I see them in stock in retail stores, I have had Lifx for a long time, still going strong.
I kick started lifx. Received 4 but had so many problems. They were crazy slow and didn’t change colour properly. I’m sure they have improved since then tho but I don’t have any use since I’m not in my own home.
This is the kind of thing I was talking about, exactly. I am not saying it's everyone's experience, but when you pay big coins for a fancy tech product these days like... support... please...
And at this very moment the dang color bulb is sold out on their website.
I am not quick to give any credence to companies when I hear of poor support from the company. Perhaps I was a victim of the classic supply chain issues in this case, or I am gullible to angry Reddit reviewers. I'd really love to be wrong! I have heard the colors on those bulbs are out of control amazing.
I will keep an eye out for a bargain or better bulb if I can find one. I am definitely hoping to be impressed now that I am a lifelong consumer of these things.
