Better is here, better doesn't cost more money (anymore).

It's pretty trivial to find a warm LED [1], just look for something with a temperature of 2700K or lower and you are set.

In fact, I have a bulb with that color from about that time still operating today.

I couldn’t find the post, but there was a more recent post (I think it reached the hacker news front page) about how just about every LED bulb has significant blue emissions.


Every "white" light has blue emissions (blue is, after all, part of white). Blue is visible, the LED blue emissions for a 2700K bulb are no more or less than the emissions from an incandescent.
