Here is a logical reason to buy a non-LED bulb: you prefer black-body light to narrow-band light. Even if the LED is rated at 2700-3000K, it has spectral peaks.

Here is a logical reason to buy a non-LED bulb: you prefer black-body light to narrow-band light. Even if the LED is rated at 2700-3000K, it has spectral peaks. Even the "high CRI" bulbs-- CRI only tests eight spectra! At night, our home is lit with tungsten halogen when entertaining, and red LEDs when it's just us. I would like to reduce my carbon footprint, but I refuse to do so at the expense of my sleep and health.
