Title: Other nightlights just didn’t compare
Review: We love that you can adjust the brightness and there are plenty of color options for our kids to choose from. We picked it because we have the kids echo in each of their rooms so it helped get them in a bedtime routine, my youngest likes to ask the echo to turn the light on once he is snuggled up in bed. Another thing that I enjoy about the Alexa app is that I can check to make sure the lights get turned off in the morning in case one of them forgets to turn them off. Originally we had a different night light for each of them but the problem was that they were too dim or they would stay on all day if we forgot to check their rooms before taking off to work and instead of just buying one we ended up with two since we were really impressed with it. Overall, they have been worth the money.

Title: Perfect To Add Mood without Breaking the Bank
Review: I picked up a whole bunch of these to put one in every room for mood lighting. They connected to my Alexa app with ease. The programming was even easier. The color theme selection is very cool. I love the fact that I can have them on when I come home at night and it gives the house a really cool and interesting warm glow of light. And I can just ask Alexa and she’ll turn them off with no questions asked. Do you need them know should you buy them absolutely.

Title: No More Open Garage!
Review: Kept trying to figure out a way for Alexa to tell me my garage door was (left) open. Routines will only tell you when something is open or closed. Some smart people figured out you can use ring window/door sensors and a hinge and rig up a way for alexa to tell you your garage door is opening or closing. I figured I could use that same setup to turn on/off a smart plug. All I’d need is to connect a light to the smart plug and have it turn on while garage door was open, then off when closed. Started looking at all kinds of lamps/LED strips. Then it occurred to me that I could just turn on a smart bulb and cut out the middle man (plug). I found this on sale and it’s been awesome. I have it turn on red when my garage door is open (and stays on) and turns off once the door is shut. I use red for the garage door. Then I figured with all the color combos i could use the same setup on other doors. My next sensor went on my mini fridge and it turns blue when left open. This setup saved HUNDREDS of dollars.

Title: A “hiidden” feature and the truth about using commands and routines.
Review: ***HIDDEN FEATURE***What’s the “hidden” feature of the echo glow?The tap function that changes the glow’s color can also respond to the vibrations from a music speaker.If you place the glow next to or on top of a speaker, it will change colors to the beat of the baseline.The more powerful the speaker and the closer to the speaker the glow is placed the more sensitive it will be to the vibrations.***THERE IS NO MUSIC SYNC MODE***The hidden feature described above is the closest thing that glow has to a “music mode”. There’s no other feature available to sync your echo glow to music.It’s strange and disappointing that the glow doesn’t have an included music sync mode seeing as it’s a Wi-Fi enabled device that connects to Alexa speakers.Amazon implies that echo glow is able to respond to music if you give its connected echo speaker device the command “start a dance party” assuming both devices are in the same group. This supposed feature is advertised on the echo glow’s product page.However the echo glow and Amazon echo speakers seemingly no longer support this command that is still being advertised.Instead, if you give this command alexa responds with an advertisement for the echo Barbie theme.Even back when the command did work all it did was set the echo glow into disco mode which does not sync to music and which you can do yourself from the Alex app.Disco mode changes colors VERY quickly, probably faster than the glow would change colors if actually synched to most music.***ROUTINES***You can enable the echo glow’s sunrise function, where the glow slowly gets brighter and brighter over a period of time before the alarm goes off, by setting up a routine for an alarm that includes the glow or by simply commanding “Alexa set an alarm for ___ time with echo glow”.As I understand it if you set up this alarm through the app/routine you can choose the length of the period of time over which the echo glow brightens but if you set up this alarm just through a voice command the default period of time the glow gets brighter over is 15 minutes.It’s worth noting that if you buy an alarm clock that has a sunrise function, such as the one made by Phillips, such an alarm clock can cost more than an echo glow just by itself alone. However, those more expensive Sunrise light alarm clocks typically include a light that gets much brighter than an echo glow can.If you want to set a rainbow timer, another feature advertised on the echo glow’s product page, you simply say, “Alexa set a ___ minute rainbow timer with ___”. Again, be sure to refer to your echo glow by whatever name you’ve given it in the Alexa app.I’m not sure if it’s possible to set routine rainbow timers. I will quote here the only answer I found online claiming that it’s possible:“In the Alexa app, go to your echo glow.Scroll down and select “create a routine.”Tap the + in the upper right to make a new one.Enter the name you want this routine to be called (morning alarm, time to get up, etc).Under “when this happens” you pick “schedule” then enter the time of day then it will ask you what days you want this to happen on.Under “add action” you choose “smart home” then “lights” then your echo glow. Then if you pick mode and set it to color glow, I believe it rotates through the colors like a rainbow”Another review from a parent recounted how they use the option of scheduling glow color changes along with Alexa announcements, through the use of routines, to help their special needs child transition from one activity to another. I personally don’t use my echo glow like that but but it does seem like this device could be uniquely helpful for parents or teachers in this way.There are of course many other routines that you could invent for your echo glow. You could have it turn red if your ring house alarm is activated and then have it turn turn green when you turn the alarm off. You could connect it to a motion detector and have it come on to light up dark hallways.***COMMANDS***Alexa is very picky about responding to commands for the echo glow.For example let’s assume you’ve named your echo glow simply “glow” in the alexa app.If you were then to say to your connected echo speaker “Alexa, echo glow campfire mode” that command would not work because you called it “echo glow” instead of just “glow”.In general If you have changed the name of your echo glow in the Alexa app be sure to refer to it by that name when giving commands.Also, if you gave it a command such as “alexa, make glow campfire mode” or “ alexa, turn glow campfire mode” those commands would not work because you used the words “make” or “turn” and Alexa apparently does not like those action words for commanding the echo glow to switch into a preset color change mode.If instead, you gave the command as “Alexa set glow campfire mode” that command will work, because apparently alexa likes the action word “set” for commanding color change modes.You can also just exclude an action word altogether, and give the command “Alexa glow campfire mode”. This is actually the best way to command the glow to switch into a color change mode.Its almost just the opposite when commanding the glow to switch into a solid state color. You MUST include an action word in your command and the glow will accept “set”, “turn”, or “make”. For example, “alexa ____ glow green” using any of those three action words in the blank space.You would think that a decent AI would be able to figure out your intentions despite the minor variations but Alexa’s infamous inability to figure out simple commands it should reasonably be expected to know continues on with the echo glow.***PRICING***If you’re only use for the glow is as a nightlight or ambient light it’s a little pricey for what it is and you would do well to wait for a prime day discount when you can typically get it for half off.***ADDRESSING POINTS MADE IN OTHER REVIEWS***The dome of the light is plastic and not glass as some other reviewers claimed.Several reviewers complained that the light does not get very bright and wirh most of the colors this is true however the “white” color is significantly brighter than the other colors. At 100% brightness the white color is enough to read by if placed bedside.Many reviewers seemed disappointed that this was not a portable battery operated device. This is a plug in product that uses a USB charging cable however it can operate off of an echo dot battery base if you are willing to purchase that separately.It is true that the glow does not include a speaker and must be controlled through either a connected echo speaker by voice or through the Alexa app and more complex routines can only be set up through the Alexa app.The issues the glow initially had with difficult set ups and wifi connectivity that many earlier reviewers pointed out seem to have been resolved with software updates.I have confirmed that two echo glows cannot be synced together. If you want two glows to be a certain color you will have to command each separately and it will be close to impossible to get two or more glows’ color change modes to sync up.***FINAL WORDS***The echo glow is a fun product that’s probably a little over priced if you buy it at full cost.It makes for a great night light and a halfway decent sunrise alarm. It makes an OK synced music light if you set it right next to or on top of a speaker.People who use the glow as a nightlight should be aware that blue lights at night can disrupt your sleep patterns. So if you or your children are using it as a night light you might want to choose colors with very little blue light in them such as red, orange or gold.It’s very picky with what commands it responds to you so you’ll have to get used to that.Amazon missed a good opportunity by not including a music sync mode with the echo glow.It’s also too bad that you can’t create your own modes for the echo glow and are restricted to choosing from the preset modes included with it.If you were looking for a light to back light a television used for movies or gaming the echo glow is a mediocre choice. It will not change colors along with the images on the screen or to music and the larger your TV is the weaker the glow’s light will be from behind it.For less money than an echo glow, you can get a strip of color changing LED lights with a remote that you can stick along the backside of your television.If you’re willing to spend a little bit more money than that, you can get a product made by GOVEE, which includes a camera that faces your TV and the tv backlights will change in sync to the images on the screen.If you want to spend a lot more money, you can invest in the Phillips Hue sync lights for back lighting TVs.
