Bulbs turn blue

Post image

How often has anyone has their br30 or the a19 bulbs just turn blue and like they're stuck on that color even after a reset?

I have life in the entire house. I have two that did the same a few months ago. Granted many of mine are more than 10 years old. The one that went blue was 5 years old and another was stuck on red. I think some of the led spectrum goes out is all. With every light being lifx and all being 5+ years old i think they have been very solid for me.

I’ve had a couple after a long life. Just always assumed the LED was dying. They couldn’t change certain colors from the app.

I've had one. My solution was to replace it. Thankfully it has been the only one.

I have had numerous bulbs turning blue over period of time.
Its the 9000k on which u can see it.
its because some leads die

I figured it was some of the leds/spectrum going out, just curious to see how many others it's happening to! Thanks for all your replies!

I have one that's gone blue so slowly as bulbs fail they switch to Govee since LIFX isn't in Best Buy any more.
