Community noted

Wi-Fi-connected smart LED bulbs that can be programmed to change brightness, color, and on/off state on a schedule.

Why it's buy-it-for-life

Redditors use LIFX bulbs to build a gradual sunrise wake-up light by scheduling the bulbs to slowly brighten at a set time, avoiding the need for a dedicated alarm clock or any subscription.

    I use LIFX bulbs. You can program the bulbs to turn on/off or change colors at set times throughout the day, and you can tell it to gradually get brighter over however long you want.
