  • For dimmers, you either need smart bulbs that do it themselves or a dimmer switch that you know is guaranteed to work with that bulb, it’s tricky. Also, LED lights that get warmer (change colour tone to a more orange colour) as they dim are far more pleasing than just dimming since they emulate what incandescent bulbs do. Sometimes if the power supply to your unit or building is choppy leds are the first to show it, so hope it’s not that.

    Good luck with your landlord, let’s hope they’re a good one.



  • I’m curious about what fixtures your led light bulbs were in.

    Old incandescent lights worked great at high heat levels, so a typical boob light fixture that kept the heat in would be fine for an incandescent. Put an LED light in there, and it can still heat up beyond design capacity and might not get enough ventilation and age prematurely.

    The only leds that failed for me were inside a fixture meant for incandescent lights. All our open bulbs or specially designed for led fixtures have been going strong for half a decade or more.




  • I read the books and I loved them. Every book was worth it for me and I enjoyed the end as well.

    I really like how this adaptation is very different from the books. Changes or low fidelity to the source usually rubs people the wrong way but I haven’t seen anyone object to it including me.

    It’s very fun wondering what’s going to happen while probably knowing the broad strokes.
