since the topics have disappeared deep down about the upcoming bulb…
do we have any updates on release date? it has been in post-production for more than a month now.
what we know is that it will be 9 watts and 800 lumens.
is it still the same thickness as the V1?
is it the same length as the V1?
design will be the exact same?
He was asking for the power consumption when the bulb is switched of. The V1 consumes ~1.2W, which is not low compared to ZigBee based bulbs (~0.4W).
1.2W standby will generate ~10.5Kwh/year.
I’m also interested, whether V2 could be optimized. But I believe due to WIFI connection, it’s probably difficult to get better in terms of standby power consumption.
Every bulb has a internal FLASH that can be used to save settings.
The standby power of this bulb is around 0.5w (we put a lot of efforts on reducing standby power to pass the EU energy star requirement), compared to latest generation bulb (around 1w standby power), it improves a lot.
