Title
LIFX Color 1000 Teardown
Introduction
One of my LIFX Color 1000 smart lightbulbs has had intermittent connectivity problems since it was installed. After having it replaced, I decided to do a teardown to see what was inside. In the process I discovered the heatsink was not securely attached, leading me to believe that excess heat was causing the problems.
