Most households have several old, still working, economy light bulbs just sitting around in the tool closet or in the tool shed. We usually put them away either because we replace them with LED bulbs or because they are not as bright as they used to be.
However, those old economy light bulbs have a couple of traits that could make them ideal for certain situations. Being dim, they are more suited for bedrooms, where you’d want something less bright. Besides, the fact that it takes them a couple of minutes to reach the top of their (somewhat diminished now) capabilities, works perfectly in the bedroom. They give your eyes the time they need to slowly adjust to the light. This way, you will no longer feel like someone is flashing a torch light in your eyes every time you wake up and switch the lights on.
