The Echo Glow Lamp, from Amazon, utilizes glow modes to change the device’s color, allowing users to create a variety of themes. The Echo Glow is basically a smart lamp for kids. It features built-in LEDs that deliver 100 lumens of white and colored light with simple-to-use tap controls to turn the device on and off. Though it is Wi-Fi enabled, it does not feature a speaker or microphone and needs to be paired with another device if voice control is desired.
The Echo Glow Lamp does not have the useful and fun features of the Amazon Echo. It’s a smallish orb about the size of a grapefruit that is simple to set up, easy to use, and will provide entertainment for kids of all ages. The smart light measures 3.9 inches around, has a USB power cord, an Action button, and can display 16 colors, including white. For the price, the Echo Glow Lamp is a nice Echo companion and is ideal for adding ambiance to any room.
The Amazon Echo Glow Lamp is compatible with the Alexa app used with other Amazon devices. Changing the device’s color is quite simple using the Echo Glow mode. Open the Alexa app for iOS or Android and select 'devices', then select 'lights', and then select 'Echo Glow'. Go to mode and then select the preferred mode or color. The Glow modes will change the device color and create various themes. If the Echo Glow is connected to another Alexa controlled device, simply tell Alexa to change the device to the preferred color or theme.
Setting The Mood With The Echo Glow
In addition to changing the color of the Echo Glow Lamp using the glow mode, the lighting effects can also be utilized. A few Echo Glow modes include Fire Truck, Underwater, Siren, and Disco. Seasonal glow modes are also available, and these include Christmas, Kwanza, and Valentine’s Day. The Amazon Echo Glow Lamp doesn’t provide enough lumens to light up an entire room, but it can certainly set the mood. It is also able to cycle through various colors, which provides a satisfying morphing effect.
In addition, the Echo Glow can be paired with an Alexa timer for a visual indicator that signals bedtime or other actions. For example, it possible to set up the Echo Glow with Alexa Routines to stay on a schedule or on-task. It can also be used as a morning alarm by setting the smart lamp to gradually get brighter when it is time to wake up and start the day.
