- The Govee Ceiling Light H60A1Unboxing, installation and quick colour examples.
The new Govee ceiling light just arrived and I decided to see about installing it and find out if it's easy to do and if there is anything the average user should know!
If you have any questions, please drop me a message and I'll get back to you!
If you want to keep me warm, coffee is always appreciated! ko-fi.com/tech...

Nice walk through thanks. I'm trying to compare this lamp with the Aqara T1M for a bedroom. I'm a huge Govee fan and their lights integrate quite well with Home Assistant. Just a tip on installation, you can use a cable tie or a bit of old wire to make a hanger for the light while you connect it up. Gives you both hands free.
In the heat of the moment, thinking rationally isn't my strong point!But a good tip for when I do the next one! Have to be honest, I am wondering if the Aqara might be better for some folk if they are looking for bright light in the colors, instead of just white... Might see about picking one up to try out! If you have both, I'd certainly love to hear your views on them!
Thanks , your review is brilliant
Excellent review on this! Ill likely buy one - quick Q. Is it bright enough to light up the entire room on its own?
When I have this on White I have to drop the brightness, but with colours it does drop down quite a fair bit, but you will need to play around with this to get the exact colour and brightness to suit your needs.
It’s quite brilliant actually !
Thanks for the review! Got the light and the colors look awesome! However, in illumination mode, even at 1% brightness this light is way too bright. Not sure what I can do about that but I contacted Govee so we'll see what happens.
@@CheesusSweet just lower the brightness in the app or ask Alexa if you have it to let the brightness and then it stays that way.
Legend 👍🏽
Hello, can I turn on the light with the classic switch on the wall? Or do I have to use the application? Thanks
I have a normal light switch, walk into the room and turn it on. It retains the last setting you had the light on, so you need to use the app to change it if you want something different.
Hey, does the ceiling light synchronize With pc gaming or tv watching? Like if the screen is yellow, does the lamp turn yellow too?
I just bought two of these lights. Instructions were nowhere near as easy to follow as this video.
Thanks for the content!
@@champieyunn appreciate the feedback, and hope you get a lot of fun out of the lights!!
hi! i just installed this lamp, but i used the white connector that you showed in the video instead of the clamps that came with the lamp. my lamp isn’t working and now i’m wondering whether it’s broken or i NEED to use the clamps instead of the white connector? any help would be appreciated ^^
@@vanillacupkid the clamps are for joining your existing wires and you must make sure you connected the right ones. I sealed off the earth wire as it is not used in my setup, but is importantly in anything electrical to follow the colour codes exactly. As I have no idea what you have done and how you have done it, I’d suggest a quick chat with Govee and see what they can do to help!!
@@TechRealityGlasgow i connected everything correctly and the same way you did, i only kept the white connector that you removed and used it instead of the clamps that came with the lamp… i know the white one is kind of an „old“ connector for the wires and i’m wondering whether it’d make a difference if i took it off and used the clams and cap instead
@@vanillacupkid I really think you should as that is the correct way to do this, the clips are just a pass through.
@@TechRealityGlasgow i think i’ll try doing that, thanks for the help!! wish me luck that it works and isn’t broken 🥴
@@vanillacupkid did you get it to work?
Nice video! Do you know if the integration with Alexa enables you to change the brightness/colors of the light or just turns it on/off?
I can ask Alexa for "Ceiling Light DIM" and it decreases the brightness in stages, and I can ask Alexa for "Ceiling Light BRIGHT" to increase the brightness. Works well! Same for colours, just ask it to change to a particular colour and it does that as well.
I have a dimmer that currently controls my light, will it work the same when I install this light?
An external dimmer switch cannot be used with this. The manual online states this.
External Dimmer cannot be used with this product.
Only use the control provided with or specified by these instructions to control this lamp. PAGE 01 of the manual from: cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0512/3489/8105/files/H60A1.pdf
@@TechRealityGlasgow Oh so I'd have to switch to a non-dimmable switch?
@@VortexGaming007 Looks that way I’m afraid. It’s pretty clear in the instructions in that link I posted I’m afraid.
Is there a cct mode which automatically swich the light temperature dure to the time?
The only way that I can see to do this (and I'm aware I am probably missing an easier way to do this) is by setting an automation schedule, which I tested out by setting a date range, adding time points, and at each time point, I set a brightness, colour temperature, and colour change to happen. I think though, what you would like to be a way to set a time range and from time (a) to time (b) have a brightness and colour range automatically happen? For that, I could not find a way of doing it, but that does not mean there isn't a way! I'll poke around the support forum and see if anything comes up that might help.
nice :)
You know you need one 🥸😂
But does it work with dream view?
Works perfectly with Dreamview!
@@TechRealityGlasgow great because my whole room is Dreamview all day every day and I just ordered the light!!
@@deairreoh I just ran the Govee app there and linked in the Ceiling light and the Glide Y Lights there... simple!
@@TechRealityGlasgow I’m running all my lights from my Govee lite 3 on my tv, this will basically be above my tv , I can’t wait !
@@deairreoh I think you will be more than happy with this! All I need to do now is open my boxes of Y lights up and install them! Let me know how you feel about the light!
