I'm 100% the same way in preferring dead tree books over my kindle. I almost switched over to kindle over the bedside table lamp keeping up my spouse until I got into very high end flashlights.
One quality of a high end flashlight is the ability to go very low in addition to very bright. Also they have high CRI and different reflector patterns. My preference for bed time reading is a Zebralight H503c. Goes down to .01 lumen. I usually keep it at 1 or .1 which is about the same contrast as a kindle on 2/10 backlight level. It has a "flood" reflector, meaning no reflector. Just a uniform wall of high CRI light from the LED about a 170° viewing angle with no hot spot. It is small, a single AA, and has runtime of months on low mode. I recharge the battery once or twice per year.
