Can I dim the lights with my voice?Yes, you can use Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant to dim the bulbs.
What's the difference between this and a light switch?A switch lets you switch on/off and dim, whereas the kit lets you do the same plus control individual bulbs, change colors and use geofencing.
