Cool but... – Orchestra of Lights Review

**Update 2020** Old review still stands. Distance on the hub is horrible. Needs improvement but it looks like they may have discontinued these lights. So I guess they won’t be updating the hub. The new issue is the App. If you disable your location services, the app creates an infinite loop of pop ups about needing to enable location services. I had to reboot my phone to stop it. ***Old Review*** I bought around $1000 worth of these lights. They are really cool when they work. Like so many others have said, the hub has HORRIBLE range on it. I thought when I saw the complaints on the hub range people were just talking about setups in really big yards or something. Nope! I have some devices that got just 15-20 feet away and lost connection. I had to put the hub outside just to connect to the lights. If I left it inside and a couple stands of lights connected. I wish they would improve hub range or allow for multiple hubs that create a mesh network improve coverage. Or even allow the box attached to each strand to act as a repeater. Or offer repeaters. Anything to improve range! I would gladly pay 3x the price for the hub if they made a better one with better range. I paid so much for these lights and now I have to return some because the distance is too much for them.
