Complement Your Mood with Multi-Color LED Light Bulbs Posted: 01 Mar 2016 03:32 PM PST Light and colors can play a very significant role on how you feel, and being able to change the color and the brightness at your will makes light bulbs such as these an excellent addition to your environment. Moods can vary wildly, but a light bulb that displays one of 16 colors at a time can easily accommodate any change. That means that the ones manufactured by Center Link Media could be suitable for parties, romantic dinners, or even movie nights. While these aren’t the type that can be controlled via a smartphone app, you can still change their setting using the included remote control. The fact that each light bulb comes with its own remote control may cause some confusion, but the manufacturer’s decision makes sense eventually. Each light bulb is controlled individually, and it’s not possible to pair more of them to a single remote control. There are several different effects that you can choose from, ranging from flash and strobe to fading and smooth, so you’ll find one for every setting. As for the colors, there are 16 options, and a button on the remote control for each one of them. As for the installation instructions, there aren’t any, since these fit in any incandescent bulb socket. That means that you can add colorful accents to both indoor and outdoor settings with a minimum of effort, and given the significant discount provided by Walyou Deals, with a minimal investment. To get a set of two multi-color LED light bulbs with remote control, head over to Walyou Deals, where you’ll find them at $29, 63% off the original price of $80. All sales are final and orders are shipped for free to continental US addresses. Deliveries are expected to take place between March 12 and March 15. Be social!
