    Got mine of Banggood today after being advised it wouldn't ship till mid October. No issues nice and bright too. Thanks OP & Tweaky for Banggood link.

    Yep, I too want to say Thanks guys for the link, love these bulbs.

    I bought two and have them on this floor standing reading light that takes two bulbs, and light is nice and bright, app is okay, works with Alexa but the main fun for kids is the 'flow' and 'Music Flow' modes. It's a like a disco for them. :)

    How do you do Music Flow?

    In the app, it's one of the options. Go into 'Music Flow' and then in the next screen select the 'Play'. I think the app listens to phones's microphone and keeps changing colours randomly to any noise - works if you open YouTube etc and play a song, you will have Yeelights dancing to it (doesn't always sync precisely, but works as a general fun setup).

    Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing delays with their bulbs coming from Banggood. Order placed on the 7th September and shipped on the 21st. I have been tracking it on the BPostChina site and it has been sitting at a status of
    "Departure to Country of Destination" for a full week. Previous packages would have arrived to me with 48 hours of that status been posted.

    Weirdly I ordered via Gearbest on 04/10, was shipped on 10/10, and delivered 19/10 via Bpost, so parcels are moving. Is it possible Banggood are fudging the tracking, or something has had it held up?

    Similar to yourself I ordered something from gearbest on the 4th Oct and it was delivered on the 13th Oct. Also came through bpost. That's why I'm confused about the extremely slow progress of this package.

    Just to add to this, I made an order on Banggood on 11/10 (all piddly nonessential items, so I am not worried about how long it takes). Order split into three, and the website tells me it is untracked shipping.

    The app on the other hand tells me:
    1. Flight dispatched - Hong Kong - 20/10
    2. Item Dispatched - Flyt Express Guangzhou - 14/10
    3. Item Dispatched - Flyt Express Guangzhou - 11/10

    1 was also from Flyt Express Guangzhou on 14/10 - so I really have no idea where any of these are, or if the tracking info is accurate.

    All that can be done is sit on it, wait a (reasonable) time, and complain through Paypal if nothing received.

    My experience of stuff going through Belgium was sitting in Belgium for over a week, then over a week from leaving Belgium to arriving in Ireland.

    Bought 6 for the price of one hue. 10.22 euro each. Thanks for the code. It's limited to 2 per account. But you can have as many accounts as you like.

    Well I have to say Banggood are taking their time with these. Bought and paid for on September 08, shipped October 11th and I'm still waiting.

    They are incredibly slow - mine shipped on September 21st and received them on November 1st - over 5 weeks. They seemed to sit at the same stages in tracking for weeks at a time even after reaching europe.

    My order is in Ireland since 26/10 apparently. Presumably rotting on the customs parcel mountain in Portlaoise.
