Hey Aqara fam!
We’re super excited to announce our next open beta! This time, we’re bringing some colors to your smart home with the Aqara LED Strip T2.
What you need to know before applying
You MUST own and actively use an Aqara Hub M3. For this specific test, the M3 is the only supported hub.
Want to boost your chances?
We’d love it if you already have some experience with smart lighting (any brand is fine!) or if you have a solid setup of Matter/Aqara devices to help us test some cool cross-device automations.
Ready to light things up?
The application form only takes about 2-3 minutes.
If you’re looking for someone to provide honest, unfiltered, and perhaps not-so-polite feedback on how these devices actually behave in a real environment (rather than just “lighting things up”), I’m your candidate
Are there plans for a UK version of this? I have several T1 LED strips and also run Phoscom which the UK store sell as “compliant” with Aqara as Aqara don’t offer more professional grade LED strip.
Since the original light was too bright, not dimmable, and not orange enough, I installed an Aqara light strip in the old Aqara Donut Lamp several years ago.
I left the original power supply and the original lamp (COB LED strip) in place so I could downgrade at any time.
I threaded the Aqara LED strip through the hole in the wall mount and then slightly raised the donut so it would sit flat again.
