One approach, of course, is to ditch your smart light bulb (I don’t recommend this.)
Or go with the practical approach of resetting your smart light bulb. It is the approach that I’ll be using in this post. And I expect you to do the same!
That said, I’ve made this step-by-step guide on “How to reset the smart light bulb.” So you can get your smart light bulb to work again. Whether it’s C By GE reset, Kasa, Tuya, or Feit reset, I’ve covered every smart light bulb, depending on your model.
That said, I’ll walk you through various smart light bulbs with a step-by-step guide on how to reset them.
How to Reset Smart Light Bulb?
The first thing you need to know is that resetting works differently in various models of smart bulbs.
Generally, most smart light bulbs follow the same reset procedure. You can also find the reset instructions in the device’s user manual.
One thing that holds true is that you’d need to click, click and click!
In other words, you’d need to turn it on and off a bunch of times to reset your smart light bulb. For some models and brands, 3 and 5 times in a row do the job. Others would need a lot of clicks 10-20 times in a row, for example.
Here’s a quick way how to reset a smart light bulb:
Step 1: Switch off the bulb from the wall switch
Step 2: Find the “on/off” button on the smart bulb (if your device features it)
Step 3: Start clicking the on/off button 2-3 times in a row. Or hold down the button for several seconds
Step 4: Constantly pressing the button should activate the bulb. It would start to blink rapidly
Step 5: Finally, after it has been reset (the sign of blinking), set it up in the app and pair it. It should start working!
How to Reset C by GE Smart Bulb?
If you’ve got a C by GE smart bulb, resetting it would be as easy as clicking “on/off” several times in a row.

Step 6: Repeating this process would make your C by GE smart bulb blink
And that’s pretty much how you can reset it.
Remember that you would need to do a lot of flicking if the firmware is older.
