WiZ also released some ambient lighting options. The new WiZ light bars can be placed flat on a table or shelf for ambient lighting effects. It communicates directly with the lights and therefore works even when the internet is down. The button works with all WiZ products and can be set to control a single light, a group, a room, or all lights. The Mobile Portable Light also works with the new WiZ Smart Button, a battery-powered remote control that can dim the light or turn it on and off. You can pair the portable light with other WiZ lights to create scenes in the WiZ app, where you can also set schedules or enable a vacation mode (to turn the lights on and off randomly). The new Smart Button uses Bluetooth to connect to any WiZ light. There are physical controls on the light – a touch panel to dim, brighten or activate preset modes, and you can use the WiZ app or a voice assistant for remote control (it works with Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple’s Siri with shortcuts).


There are also options for a slow fade or a slow lighten to shut down or wake up, and you can use two different gradients for an ombre light effect. In terms of lighting, this is a full-color smart light that offers preset lighting modes, scenes, and dynamic options like candlelight that simulates a flickering flame that you set up in the WiZ smartphone app.

WiZ claims it will run for around 10 hours on a full charge, and there’s a carrying handle. The portable lamp is battery operated and comes with a USB-C charging cable. Just in case the design didn’t give it away, the name for WiZ’s new lamp hammers home that the Mobile Portable Light is one that you can easily carry from room to room (but not outdoors, as it no water resistance rating). With touch controls you can dim the lights and activate scenes that you set up in the WiZ app. WiZ products work with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple Siri Shortcuts, IFTTT and SmartThings. 1 the most building blocks for a smart lighting setup.
