Love the lights, hate the springs.

The lights work perfect and look great. However, The lights keep falling out of the ceiling. It seems that some of the lights have issues with where the springs connects to the light. We bought 2 packs of 6 and 7 out of the 12 lights have this same issue. The slot where the spring clicks into the light seems to be too big/loose and wont hold the spring in place causing the spring to come out of the light. Aside from requesting that Govee to warranty out the light and take the 50/50 chance I will get another one with the same issue, the only other option is to glue the clips into the slot on the light itself.

The lights are coming on 4 to 6 seconds after we hit the switch.

I put the 4 inch recess lights in 3 bedrooms and 6 inch recess lights in 1 bedroom.
The lights are coming on 4 to 6 seconds after we hit the switch, which is totally not acceptable. Please let me know if there is a way to mitigate this. I asked the electrician if there is anything that can be done, he rechecked the wiring and said there is nothing wrong with the wiring and the issue is with the smart lights.
I spend the whole day yesterday on trying to fix this but was unsuccessful.
Can you please reply if there is any solution to this.

Bought these to replace my old can lights that were installed when the house was built. I cheated and forced the clips into the mounted canisters rather than going into the attic and removing the cans as the directions stated. My house is 2 story and getting to where the can lights are is just not an option for an old feller my my stature. So I was able to hold the cips back and quickly insert into the cans. Clips opened up and have held the lights just fine for 6 months now. That being said, it wasn't easy. I noticed they have retro lights now that appear to be the correct sort of replacement. I would go with the retro if you are not removing the cans. If you can remove the cans, these are a no brainer. I hooked up to my wifi switches and they stay on white almost all the time. I have yet to hook them up to the TV lights using the dream feature but have played with the different light effects from my phone.

Lights are too thick for slim down light applications
on September 3, 2024

These things feel light and hollow, so I would bet they could be slimmer. That and competitors are all slimmer. One of the reasons to use the slim down light without a can is because it may bridge a joist in the ceiling. Sadly, these lights are all thicker than all drywall thicknesses. They stick out from the ceiling if they span a stud/joist. There's no way to fix it without cutting the wood or somehow modifying the light. For that reason, these lights are not fit for purpose. I really like Govee's other products, so this one was disappointing.

Looks like they would be great...

I did not pay enough attention to the product and realized that retrofitting an existing can light in a ceiling that does not have any crawl space above it was more work than I wished to tackle. This would be a great product for new contruction or if you were able to get to the existing light from above. I do wish Govee had a BR30 smart bulb in their lineup. Overall looks to be another great product from Govee. I did return the lights and chose a BR30 smart bulb from another manufacturer
