About this product
Turn any room into your personal lighting playground with the Tapo L530B B22 Smart Bulb that fits straight into your existing B22 socket. This Wi-Fi enabled bulb connects through the free Tapo app and gives you full control over 16,000,000 colours plus adjustable brightness from 1% to 100%, so you can set the perfect mood whether you're hosting dinner or settling in for a film. The bulb produces up to 806 lumens at full brightness, which is about the same as a traditional 60-watt bulb, and works with Alexa and Google Assistant for hands-free voice control.
Found a lighting setup you absolutely love? Store it as a preset in the app and bring it back instantly next time without fiddling with sliders. The scheduling feature lets you automate your lights to turn on or off at specific times with your chosen colours and brightness levels already dialled in. The bulb installs in seconds like any standard bulb and connects to your home Wi-Fi network through your smartphone. You'll get full control from anywhere with mobile internet access, and the Tapo app tracks your energy usage so you know exactly what you're using.

Good product
Bought this months ago, still holds up very well. Connectivity can be slightly delayed at times, but otherwise scheduling, fading settings work fine.

Great
Great, very bright, I’m using only one colour, the brightest as the standard was out of stock when I was looking to buy, I check the other colours and they look nice for those who likes disco effect but I just prefer usual light. I so cool that I can control it from my phone

Good for what I use it for
Excellent product Fairly easy to set up. Not sure I need the different colours after a while only use normal white and warm white-cream other colours seem a novelty but would be good for children maybe. Happy I can dim using phone. So overall good purchase.

Hi,
The bulb does consume power when the physical switch is on. The L530B is powered by a traditional lamp holder, and its smart features require the physical switch to remain on for continuous power.
When you turn off the bulb via the Tapo app, it actually enters standby mode, not a complete power cut-off. This standby mode allows it to maintain Wi-Fi connectivity and respond to your commands, but with minimal power consumption.
You can also view and track energy consumption in the Tapo app. Simply go to the bulb page > "Usage" to view runtime, energy consumption, and energy-saving information.
As for the "plug-in time switch" you mentioned, if it's like our smart socket, then it only consumes power when connected to Wi-Fi, and the power consumption is similar.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Lex,
Yes, the bulb can work with Bluetooth! Here's how:
Setup Without Wi-Fi:
During the initial setup process, you can skip the Wi-Fi connection step. The app will then complete the setup directly via Bluetooth without requiring a Wi-Fi connection. Once setup is finished, you can control the bulb locally through the app within Bluetooth range.
Important Notes:
1. While Bluetooth provides local control, some features will have limitations:
• Automation & Shortcuts: These require internet access and won't work
• Alexa/Google Home: Manual and voice control will be invalid
• Schedule/Timer/Away mode/Auto Biorhythm: After a power failure, you'll need to reconnect the bulb to your phone's Bluetooth to get the correct time for these features to work properly
2. We recommend using Wi-Fi when available for the best experience, including remote access and advanced automation features.
3. The bulb supports only one Bluetooth connection at a time, so only one phone/tablet can control it via Bluetooth simultaneously.
So you can definitely use the bulb with Bluetooth only for basic on/off and local control!
Thanks for using Q&A.

Hello Trish,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the TP-Link Tapo L530B B22 Multicolour Smart Wi-Fi Bulb: ''The Tapo L530B Smart Wi-Fi Light Bulb is not designed for outdoor use. According to the official datasheet, it should not be used in damp environments or outdoors.
While the bulb operates within a temperature range of -15°C to 40°C and 10%–90% relative humidity (non-condensing) , it lacks an IP (Ingress Protection) rating, indicating it isn't weatherproof. Therefore, using it outdoors, even in covered areas, poses risks due to potential exposure to moisture and temperature fluctuations.''
Thank you for using Q and A.
Hi,

Hi Ang,
There is no limit to the number of smart devices that can be managed under a single account, you can have different Tapo models on the same app and same WI-FI, and even if your smart devices are in different locations or connected to different Wi-Fi networks, you can use the same Tapo app to control them if they are bound to the same TP-Link account.
Thanks for using Q&A.
