Full Color Lights
For mood setting every day and entertainment value for holidays,
sports celebrations and other moments, C by GE adds Full Color
solutions with millions of color options, plus tunable whites, in a
60-watt equivalent A19 bulb, a BR30 for recessed cans and a
customizable 80” light strip and 40” light strip extension perfect
for creating an elegant glow around counters, cabinets, soffits and
other areas.
These solutions can be used individually or grouped within the C
by GE app to adjust colors and settings simultaneously across
solutions. Set schedules based on routines, from automatically
turning on the kids’ favorite color every night to trigger homework
time to auto adjusting to a warm, amber glow an hour before bedtime
to wind down.
While these products are compatible with Amazon Alexa when
paired with the C-Reach Hub, they also carry the lighting
industry's first Made for Google designation. This means, without a
hub and in just one app (the Google Home app), you can use the
Google Home, Google Mini, Google Max or Google Nest Hub to quickly
and easily set-up and seamlessly connect and control these
solutions.
Users setting up the solutions within the Google Home app will
unlock dozens of the most commonly used colors and whites and have
the ability to bring color to their favorite Google Assistant
scenes (good night, good morning, etc.). Users wishing to go a
level deeper to access millions of colors and tunable whites, plus
set unique schedules, should configure these solutions within the C
by GE app.
The bulbs carry an MSRP of $39.99-$44.99. The light strip has an
MSRP of $74.99, with the extension carrying an MSRP of $39.99.
Tunable White Bulbs
Don’t need full color but still want to adjust the white light
around the home to create different moods? New Tunable White bulbs
not only offer white options for your sleep/wake cycle but can take
you from energizing daylight for work to candlelight for a romantic
dinner to soft white for relaxing in the family room with dozens of
available white color options.
Both a traditional A-line shape, as well as a BR30 for recessed
cans, carry the Made for Google designation and also are compatible
with Amazon Alexa when using the C-Reach Hub. MSRP $19.99-$24.99
BR30.
Smart Switches
Make any bulb smart with the introduction of new C by GE Smart
Switches. Without the need for an additional GE Hub, the new Smart
Switches allow consumers to turn on and off, dim*, set schedules
and scenes and control at or away from home any brand incandescent,
halogen, CFL or LED bulb with their favorite voice assistant, an
app, their touch or even their movement.
For C by GE smart bulb users, the Switches bring extra benefit
by eliminating the need for an external hub and allowing for full
control of C by GE bulbs even when the switch is off—an industry
first for in-wall smart switches that eliminates an existing
challenge of kids or visitors accidentally flipping the switch and
disabling full control of smart bulbs.
The switches also offer multi-way connections between each
other, allowing whole-room lighting control by grouping bulbs on
different circuits wirelessly – no travel wire or complicated
set-up required.
In addition to a motion and ambient light dimmer switch, as well
as a dimmer switch that launched earlier this year with an
industrial design, consumers also can opt for a smart on/off switch
in paddle and toggle configurations to blend seamlessly with other
toggle/paddle switches across the home. MSRP $34.99-$74.99
On/Off Smart Plug
This Smart Plug makes nearly any electrical item at home smart.
Use the Smart Plug with other devices like curling irons, fans and
electronic devices to turn them on or off remotely or schedule them
to operate around your routine. The Smart Plug connects directly
with Google Home and Amazon Alexa devices without a hub required.
Simply plug into a standard wall socket and you're ready to go.
MSRP $24.99

These products are immediately available in various assortments
