I originally bought this product a couple of years ago and found it to be very helpful in waking me in the morning due to my inability to hear sound alarms. Because of this positive experience, I purchased the GE Link Starter Kit for my parents, less than two months ago, to help them turn hard to reach lighting on and off. Last week, our area experienced a quick power outage, causing the the the modern to go offline. Because this has happened several times in the past, I began the usual procedure of trying to reset the unit. However, I quickly discovered that this modem appears to no longer be supported by Wink, therefore, rendering this unit useless. It greatly disturbs me that I purchased this product and within a matter of 6 short weeks, I am unable to use it. This does not bode well for Wink, GE and for Amazon. Each for continuing to sell a product, that is no longer supported. Very disappointed in this recent purchase.

The light bulbs work well with a Wink hub, but both GE and the Wink app have abandon support for the Link hub that comes with the kit. You should be able to find smart lights that work with the Wink hub for less.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great price for good bulbs but you need another HUB, this one no longer works
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2018
The bulbs are great, Wink company is TERRIBLE! ! ! Without warning, they just decided to stop supporting this product and are not allowing the GE Link Hub to be added to their Wink app. They want you to buy a Wink Hub and link the bulbs to that. Amazon selling this in their marketplace is not as bad as Wink still selling the same starter kit on their website! ! ! !

Throwing the now useless GE Link Hub away still gives you 2 bulbs for $15 a piece, which is a really good price for them. If I didn't already have both the GE Hub and a Wink Hub, I would go out and buy a competitors Hub. These bulbs will work with other HUBS, just do a google search. I installed my first GE bulb 3 years ago and they are all still working as are the new ones I purchased 6 months ago and sometimes leave them on all night when traveling so get good use.

If you do buy this kit, just know you have to either already own a HUB or you have to go out and buy one, my advise, don't buy WINK for how they handled - or should say didn't handle- this disconnect from their app. They left countless numbers of loyal and new customers high and dry.

The transmitter is not supported by wink at the moment. The ge device is defficient and the bulbs don't work via the app because of this. This will work if you have a separate wink hub.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy GE Link Hub (or this kit) any more - it no longer works as it is out of support from Wink.

I bought this Starter Kit in the end January this year (2018) and today I learnt that the Wink APP stopped support for the HUB. So you cannot configure and use the kit (Hub) to connect to the smart bulbs. I called Wink and they confirmed the same. Basically, you will need to throw away the Hub and buy some other hub like the Wink Hub 2 or Smart Things. I will have to try with other hubs in case the bulbs work - at least to salvage some of the money I wasted. Do not know why Amazon still sells these kits or the Hub.
