Sengled Zigbee Edison Bulb ST19 (2-Pack)

Amber 2000K filament bulbs that join a Zigbee hub directly.

Our verdict

The Sengled Edison is the budget route to smart vintage light. A real 2000K amber filament in an ST19 tube, 600 lumens, and native Zigbee for SmartThings or Echo hubs, at a two-pack price the Hue filament cannot touch. It is fixed amber with no white tuning and no repeater function, and it never pretends otherwise.

What we like

  • 2000K amber filament gives the true vintage glow tunable bulbs cannot reach
  • 600 lumens with CRI 90 or better from a 7.2 W filament
  • Native Zigbee pairs with SmartThings, Echo with built-in hub, Hubitat, and Sengled hub
  • Dimming from 1 to 100 percent through the hub

What to watch out for

  • Fixed 2000K amber only; no daylight or white tuning
  • Hub required, and Sengled bulbs do not repeat the Zigbee signal
  • No Hue Entertainment or HomeKit support

What owners report: Sengled Zigbee Edison Bulb ST19 (2-Pack)

Synthesized from recurring themes in long-term owner feedback.

Most praised

  • The deep amber warmth reads as true vintage light, warmer than tunable bulbs can imitate
  • Rendering stays clean for a filament bulb, so faces and wood do not look muddy under it
  • Two pack pricing makes pendant pairs and porch fixtures affordable on a hub based system

Common complaints

  • Amber is the only colour temperature, with no option for clearer white when a task needs it
  • A hub is required, and the bulb will not extend the mesh to other devices
  • Hue style entertainment sync and Apple control through a Bridge are not part of the package

Who it is for

Hub owners dressing pendants, porches, and dining fixtures in true amber filament light. Not for task lighting or tunable-white needs.

Real amber, real filament

2000K is the color of candlelit vintage bulbs, deeper than the warm end of any tunable-white range. With 600 lumens and CRI 90+ rendering, the Sengled gives that glow without the dim, muddy output cheap filament bulbs are known for.

Zigbee on a budget

The bulbs pair with SmartThings, Echo devices with built-in hubs, Hubitat, Wink, or Sengled's hub, and dim from 1 to 100 percent. Like other Sengled bulbs they are end devices, not repeaters, so they will not extend your mesh; place them within range of the hub or a repeater.

Two-pack positioning

Edison bulbs are used in pairs and rows, and the 2-pack pricing acknowledges it. For a dining pendant cluster or a porch pair, this is the lowest-cost way in this guide to put filament light on a real smart mesh.

Yes. It is Zigbee only, pairing with SmartThings, an Echo with a built-in hub, Hubitat, or a Sengled hub.

A fixed 2000K amber warm, the classic vintage filament glow. It dims but does not tune to other color temperatures.
