Return of incandescent light bulbs as MIT makes them more efficient than LEDs
People complaining about LEDs being too "bright" or "clinical/sterile" were too bothered to look into the different color temperature options. The annoyingly bright bulbs are around 5000K brightness which would make a home at night feel like a fully-lit classroom. I have 2700K bulbs which give off a much cozier incandescent glow: http://blog.batteriesplus.com/2013/seeing-things-in-a-differ...Sure, the bulbs take about 1/5 of a second to turn on, which is not instant, but the cheaper LEDs can take up to 2 seconds to reach full brightness. You have to buy a better made bulb to get the quicker "on", which means spending more money. People only trying the cheapest LEDs available are the ones complaining the most about them, I'd assume.
