Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Govee Smart Bulb GU10 RGBWW is a four-pack of GU10 LED spotlights that connect over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and run from the Govee Home app, Alexa or Google Home. It takes number 7 in this guide. Each bulb is rated at 400 lumens and 4.8 watts, the four-pack is £39.99, and the listing carries a 4.6 rating from 2,363 ratings.
What makes this one worth a closer look is that its wattage fields are the right way round. Elsewhere in this guide the headline watts and the incandescent equivalent have been swapped or mislabelled; here the table gives 4.8 watts of draw against a 40-watt incandescent equivalent, which is what you would expect from an LED spotlight. The mismatch sits elsewhere. The spec table lists a single colour temperature of 2700 Kelvin, while the description says the bulbs adjust between 2700K and 6500K. The voltage appears twice, as both '220 Volts' and '220 to 240 Volts and 50 Hertz'. And the listing carries two shape labels at once, GU10 for the base and MR16 for the shape. At 400 lumens a bulb, the light output is the figure to compare against the fitting you are replacing, because 400 lumens is a modest spotlight rather than a room-filler.
