    Any recommendations? I’ve struggle with LED light color temp off and on over the years. I haven’t looked into it in a while though. It always seems like if you want a low color temp it has to be an edison bulb which is really dim.

    On a separate note I’ve also had reliability issues with LED bulbs where they will blow out and emit smoke.

      Look for colour names like “soft white” or “warm”. The 2700K is a dead give away for the colour you’re looking for.

      Also, separate note: check your appliances or fixtures for power spikes. cheaper LEDs are notoriously sensitive to voltage fluctuations
