i was looking at Sylvania or Sengled, but after looking I think I am also going with Grovee. I know they dont connect with Smartthings, but I really dont know that will be necessary. I know its another app, but for the price difference, i think I can deal with it. If I was looking at one strand, it might be alright. However, Im looking at 6 separate strands. I can still control with google. You have had them for over 6 months now. What are your thoughts?
