Sengled Bulb & Alexa Skills (Integration Guide).

Many people want to shrink their electric bills by changing their traditional bulbs with smart ones, and this is the real reason why this market is booming, so if you’re one of those people I can tell you that is a great idea because they will operate at about 7 to 9.5 Watts to produce the incandescent bulb equivalent of 60 watts.

Sengled is one of these brands that offer this kind of lamp which offers many features such as remote control from the mobile app, the ability to change its color, brightness control, and many other smart features that will help you to reduce your bills and increase comfort.

People who are controlling their smart home appliances from a voice assistant are asking if Sengled light bulbs work with Alexa? The answer is yes you can easily pair your Sengled bulb with the Alexa voice assistant and control it from devices like Echo Dot, Echo Show, Echo Spot, Fire Tablet, and all Alexa-enabled gadgets.

This article will go over the relationship between Alexa and Sengled bulbs and how to pair them using your mobile phone or tablet, how users will benefit from this combination, and much more so see you below.

How to connect Sengled bulb to Alexa?

So if you intend to turn the lights on and off, adjust its brightness, change its color using your voice, or create routines you need to connect your Sengled lamps to the Alexa app on your smartphone or tablet, and this is what we’re going to teach you in this section of this article.

Note: The all-new Echo Show and Echo Plus devices include a built-in smart home hub that seamlessly connects and controls Zigbee smart gadgets so you don’t need the Sengled hub to connect your bulbs to Alexa, but make sure that your lamps are already set up in your Sengled Home app.

First I recommend disabling the Do Not Disturb mode on the Alexa app to be able to receive notifications about your bulb on Alexa enabled devices, and here’s how to do it:

1. Launch the Alexa app.
2. Go to “Devices”, then choose “Echo & Alexa”.
3. Select your device.
4. Then tap on “Do Not Disturb”.
5. Turn Do Not Disturb off.

After that you can follow the instructions below to pair Alexa with your Sengled light bulbs:

1. Open the Alexa app on IOS or Android device.
2. Tap “More” on the lower hand corner of the screen.
3. Then select “Skills & Games”.
4. tap on the magnifying glass and search for Sengled.
5. Choose “Sengled Home” (the one with the red logo).
6. Click on the blue button “Enable To Use”.
7. Now enter your Sengled account information and select Continue.
8. You’ll receive this message “Your Sengled Home account has been successfully linked”, click on Close.
9. Another screen will appear, select “Discover Devices”.
10. Now Alexa will look for your Sengled bulb to connect to it (the process may take up to 45 seconds).
11. Sometimes Alexa will not show that the devices have connected even though they have it can just be a glitch in the software.
12. The best way to test if your Sengled devices have connected to Alexa is to try and use an Alexa voice command to turn them on or off.
13. if your lamps respond to the voice commands that means your Sengled Smart bulb is connected to Alexa.

Now you’re able to control your Sengled light bulb from all Alexa-enabled devices just with your voice. I recommend giving a simple name to your bulbs to make it easier for Alexa to hear, and here’s how to do it:

1. Open the Alexa app.
2. click on “Devices” at the bottom of the screen.
3. Scroll across the top and select All devices.
4. Then select the Sengled bulb you want to edit.
5. Tap the gear icon at the top right corner of the screen.
6. Tap Edit Name and rename your bulb.

Name’s like “Bedroom light” or “Desk light” or living room light” are very easy to be heard by the voice assistant.

To control your Sengled bulbs using your voice assistant you need to know all the voice commands and use them when you want to adjust the brightness, change color or turn ON or OFF a lamp or a group.

This is a list of voice commands that you can rely on to control your Sengled lamps with Alexa:

Setting up a group is a smart way to control several Sengled bulbs with just one voice command for example, in place of turning OFF your bulbs in the living room one by one you can just say “Alexa, turn OFF (group name) ” and the same thing for adjusting brightness and changing colors.

So follow the next steps to create a group for your Sengled bulbs:
