Rank #9 in Best Smart Bulbs 2026: 10 Ranked, Wattage Claims Checked
Enshine B22 Smart Bulb, 1500lm, 15W
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
Enshine's B22 smart bulb takes the number 9 spot in this guide, and it is the cleanest example of the problem this article keeps running into. The product title says 15W=100W. The spec table on the same listing says Incandescent Equivalent: 120 Watts. Both figures describe the same 1,500-lumen bulb, and neither field is marked as approximate.
What does hold together is the wattage. Wattage, Power Consumption and Light Source Wattage all read 15 Watts, matching the 15W in the title. The bulb is a B22 bayonet-fitting RGBCW LED with 2700K-6500K tunable white, app control over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Alexa and Google Assistant voice control, and a quoted 25,000-hour average life. It is £11.89 for a single bulb and holds 4.2 out of 5 from 811 ratings. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as written, not from testing we carried out ourselves.
