Model: Tapo L630  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

Hello, I've just purchased some Tapo L630 bulbs to start my smart home journey. Simple question I'm looking for an answer to, I was to install the L630 bulbs in my bathroom - is it possible to set it up so that if the lights are switched on at the wall after 21:00HRS, they will come on at a dimmer setting rather than full brightness, and then return to full brightness in the morning say after 08:00HRS? It would be nice to have it not on full brightness when it's dark outside. I do not have a smart button or hub, so the lights will be turned on and off by the normal wall switch. Is this possible or would I need to buy a smart button and control the lights solely using the smart button? 

 

Thank you.

Smart bulb's smart feature works only when the smart bulb is online. The expected scene can be achieved if the control is done through software control, such as through the Tapo app, other Tapo devices, or through third-party controls like Alexa, Google Home.

However, if it is controlled through the wall switch, which cuts the power to the smart bulb when it is off, the smart feature will not work in this case.
