A lot of people think that they need to cough up the cash for smart LED bulbs to get nifty features that aren’t actually “smart.” For example, you’re crazy if you spend $50 a bulb for Philips Hue lights if all you want is a bulb that will automatically turn on at night and then back off again in the morning. The Philips LED Dusk-to-Dawn A19 Frosted Light Bulb does exactly that, and 3-packs are on sale right now on Amazon for just $23. That’s under $8 a bulb instead of $50!
