    Standard

    Bulb

    Your go-to bulbs for everyday use in standard sockets.
    Use the light appearance to match older bulbs in your facility.
    Warm (2,700 K)—A 2,700K (warm) light appearance resembles incandescent bulbs.
    Warm (3,000 K)—A 3,000K (warm) light appearance resembles halogen bulbs.
    Plastic Bulb—Plastic bulbs are shatterproof.
    App Controlled—App-controlled bulbs offer the most flexibility: a free Wi-Fi app dials in any white temperature or color, toggles power, and runs schedules.
    Selectable Light Appearance—If you aren't sure what you need, pick a bulb with a selectable light appearance.
