These are 9.5W bulbs (RGB and multiple temps of white) and the camel says this is the best price (without coupon) bought another 4 pack despite buying a set a couple of weeks ago for a few bucks more 😂

The price of the bulb set is good but the bulbs themselves are not good. I have everything Tapo/Tp Link/Kasa all the light switches with WiFi, doorbell camera and deadbolt. Bought 8 sets and installed one set in bedroom and the bulbs sometimes turn on, sometimes one or two turns on I even set it as a group in the app to control 4 bulbs in light fixture but in the app it shows it's offline 75% of the time. Worst part was their own WiFi smart switch with dimmer couldn't dim the bulbs you have to dim the bulbs from the app only or by Alexa or Siri or something. It's going back instead of forward if you can't dim by the light switch it self.

If you're still within 30 days you can return them at Amazon if they don't work. I've not had a problem with this specific model (1100 lumens matter compatible are the only ones I've bought from tp) but I also only access them with Google (speakers and home on my phone) and via a standard switch.
Edit: if it is at all helpful and you're past 30 days there was a firmware update pushed recently that was meant to address the offline bulb problem, using the app go into the bulbs that are not functioning and verify that they're running the latest firmware. But really, if it's within 30 days definitely return them for different ones as I've had no problems with these bulbs aside from the whole adding them to Google headache (that is Google and the fact I don't add new bulbs for ages so forget everything😂)
