Something I've realized recently is how over lit our homes can be. Like most homes, mine have always had a bunch of lights I didn't really choose with simple on/off switches. But I'm remodeling my house now and have been testing different led lights and smart lighting systems, and in the process have discovered how much better the lights are when they're dimmed! Setting aside the blue light issue for a moment, I wonder how much a simple reduction in lumens would be helpful. Just putting our lights on a smart dimmer solution (noon home for the curious) has made a big difference. I rarely turn the dimmers above 50% and it's plenty of light with a lot less glare and using even less electricity than having leds on standard switches. With the remodeled part of the house the lights will all be LED, but 2700k and every one of them will be on a dimmer switch.
