Ikea’s colorful donut-shaped smart lamp is $20 off.

宜家色彩缤纷的甜甜圈形状智能灯降价 20 美元。

The Varmblixt can display hundreds of colors thanks to its Matter support, and can be put on your table or wall.

得益于对 Matter 标准的支持,Varmblixt 可以显示数百种颜色,既可以放在桌面上,也可以安装在墙上。

With its playful design, versatility, and relatively affordable price, the Ikea Varmblixt quickly became one of my colleague Jennifer Pattison Tuohy’s new favorite smart light products when she tested it in April. Now, the donut-shaped lamp is on sale for $79.99 ($20 off) through November 11th at Ikea.

凭借其俏皮的设计、多功能性和相对实惠的价格,宜家 Varmblixt 在我同事 Jennifer Pattison Tuohy 四月份测试时,迅速成为了她最喜爱的新款智能照明产品之一。目前,这款甜甜圈形状的灯具在宜家促销,售价为 79.99 美元(优惠 20 美元),活动持续至 11 月 11 日。

Don’t let us tell you where you can or cannot put your Varmblixt. But it’s meant to sit on a table or be mounted on a wall (it can hang from a drilled-in screw, nothing fancy). At just 180 lumens, it isn’t particularly bright, so it’s better suited for use as a bedside lamp or for mood lighting than being tasked to illuminate a room.

我们不会限制您将 Varmblixt 放置在何处。但它原本的设计是放在桌面上或安装在墙上(只需一颗螺丝即可悬挂,无需复杂操作)。其亮度仅为 180 流明,并不算特别亮,因此它更适合用作床头灯或氛围灯,而不适合用于照亮整个房间。

The newer model lets you cycle through 12 preset colors, including shades of pink, blue, green, and white, as opposed to just orange with the predecessor. The included wireless remote lets you switch between colors, adjust the brightness, and turn the lamp on or off without needing an app or a separate hub (there’s a power button on the lamp itself). You can also use the remote to control other compatible Ikea lights.

新款型号允许您在 12 种预设颜色之间循环切换,包括粉色、蓝色、绿色和白色调,而前代产品仅能显示橙色。随附的无线遥控器让您可以切换颜色、调节亮度以及开关灯,无需使用应用程序或单独的集线器(灯具本身也有电源按钮)。您还可以使用该遥控器控制其他兼容的宜家灯具。

For those who want to embed the Varmblixt into their smart home setup, the lamp supports Matter, allowing it to work with compatible smart home platforms including Apple Home, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa. In addition to letting you control the lights with your voice, this gives you access to hundreds more colors, lets you set lighting schedules and sleep or wake-up routines, and allows you to connect the lamp with motion sensors and other smart lights you may have.

对于那些希望将 Varmblixt 融入智能家居系统的用户,该灯具支持 Matter 标准,使其能够与包括 Apple Home、Google Home 和 Amazon Alexa 在内的兼容智能家居平台协同工作。除了支持语音控制外,这还让您能够使用数百种额外颜色,设置照明时间表以及睡眠或唤醒程序,并允许您将该灯具与运动传感器及您拥有的其他智能灯具连接。

You can unlock those features with Ikea’s Dirigera hub, as well, which also offers a feature through its Home Smart app that gradually adjusts the shade of white throughout the day akin to natural daylight.

您也可以通过宜家的 Dirigera 集线器解锁这些功能,该集线器还通过其 Home Smart 应用程序提供一项功能,可以像自然光一样在全天内逐渐调节白光的色调。
