The studio bulbs are cool, 4000K; the kitchen warm, 2700K.

The utility room bulbs are now museum piece LEDs.

Still a problem with the two stairway bulbs. They have to be incandescent because of the incorrect wiring.

Ikea

Ryet LED 1000 lumens 9W 110×60 mm E27
good value (€8 for two) but 4000K cool

Ryet LED 1055 lúmenes 10W 110x60mm E27
good value (€7 for two) and 2700K warm

Ledare also available but can’t see the point – more expensive

Also bulbs in lower lumens, big globes and fancy filaments
