Purchased the BR-30 bulbs and the colors are pretty decent, however the brightness is severely lacking. We've tried a range of temperatures of white, warm to cool, all at full brightness, and the room still looks like the lights need to be turned on. I'll have to find something else to do with these lights, because they aren't going to work out for the room I planned to use them in. Set up was easy, running a ZigBee network through Home Assistant using DECONZ, found them instantly, grouped the bulbs and can easily control the color, brightness, and state for all of them as a group. But these bulbs that are listed as 75 watt equivalent are putting out less light than some 40 watt bulbs we have.
*Update - through online forums I found that DECONZ was not exposing all of the functionality of these bulbs, the issues with the bulbs not being bright enough are due to the fact that some LEDs are dedicated to the white color ranges and we're not being activated by the DECONZ handler. Switching to either ZHA, or Zigbee2mqtt, resolves the issue. These bulbs now look great and are fully tunable throughout the spectrum of white lighting. The colors are good, saturation of the colors isn't super deep but it does offer a nice balance of providing light and color.
