Research profile · last verified 2026-09-12Oasis Candle Bulb (E12)
⚠ Similar names, different products: Oasis sells two screw-in bulbs and names them by size. The Candle (this one) has the thin E12 base used in chandeliers, sconces and small fixtures, and it will not fit an everyday lamp socket. The Standard has the everyday E26 base and is brighter. Neither is the Oasis Ambient, which is a plug-in lamp with its bulb built in.

“Not established” means we have not sourced that detail yet — not that the product has no model number, generation or regional variant. We publish the gap rather than filling it.
Compatibility
| Ecosystem | Support | The catch |
|---|---|---|
| Amazon Alexa | WorksWorks with this ecosystem[2] | Oasis says, for its whole range: 'Currently Google Home and Alexa are supported.' It publishes no setup guide and no skill name, and doesn't say which controls carry over to Alexa. That includes the automatic sun-following schedule, which is the main reason to buy these bulbs. So Alexa is supported by Oasis's own word, but how deep that support goes is not published. |
| Google Home | WorksWorks with this ecosystem[2] | Oasis supports Google Home in the same one-sentence answer that covers Alexa. It publishes no setup steps and doesn't say whether brightness, colour tone or schedules can be controlled from Google Home. |
| Apple Home | Doesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[2] | Oasis answers the question itself. Asked which smart home systems it supports, it names Google Home and Alexa and nothing else, and adds that it is working on expanding that list. Apple Home is not on it today. Because Oasis says the list will grow, this answer could change. |
| SmartThings | Doesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[2] | SmartThings is not on Oasis's own list of supported systems, which names only Google Home and Alexa. Oasis says it is working on adding more. |
| Home Assistant | Doesn't workVerified: does not work with this ecosystem[2] | Home Assistant is not on Oasis's list of supported systems, and Oasis offers no documented way to control the bulb from your own network. That means Oasis doesn't support it. It doesn't prove no one has ever made it work. |
Protocols: not yet established — no source we have read names the radios this device uses.
Needs before it works: No hub. Oasis's page for this bulb says no hub is needed and that the bulb is controlled through the Oasis app. What Oasis does not say is how the bulb connects to that app, so check with Oasis which home network the bulb needs before buying.[1]
Subscription reality[2]
? Works without a subscription: Not established — no source we accept has addressed fees for this product in either direction.
Vendor account required: Not established — we have not sourced this yet.
Oasis's bulb page names no plan, tier or fee. It also never says the app is free, so we can't confirm there is nothing to pay.
Maintenance reality
- Works without the internet: Not established — we have not sourced this yet. It does not mean the product fails without the internet.
- A thin-base E12 screw-in LED bulb for chandeliers and small fixtures. Oasis lists 400 lumens, 4.7 watts, 110 volts and a colour range from 1000K, which it calls pure red, up to 4000K. It lists a life of 25,000+ hours and a size of 1.6 x 4.5 inches, and describes the light as flicker-free with a colour rendering index above 90. Dimming happens in the app only. Oasis says the bulbs do not work with dimmer switches, which may make them flicker. That matters more for a candle bulb, since chandeliers and sconces are often on dimmers.
- Security updates: Oasis publishes no security-update support date for this model. That is a gap in what the manufacturer has published, not evidence either way — some makers declare a support period and some say nothing at all.[2]
The catch
The fixtures a candle bulb is made for are often on dimmer switches, and Oasis says its bulbs don't work with them. On a dimmer they may flicker, and dimming has to happen in the app or through a voice assistant. Beyond that, everything smart goes through the Oasis app. Oasis names no radio or network type and doesn't say what the bulb does without the internet. Its closed list of supported systems covers Alexa and Google Home only. It is sold only as a two-pack.
Who it's for
An Alexa or Google Home household with chandeliers, sconces or small lamps on a plain on-off switch that wants those lights to follow the day on their own, bright in the morning and warm at night. It is a poor fit where those fixtures sit on a dimmer, for Apple Home, SmartThings or Home Assistant users, and for anyone who needs to know how a bulb connects and what it does offline before buying.
