. I have been using this type of flashlight for many years. But this particular brand and style is amazing! Why? The light dims to a soft amber tone and gets brighter when turned on. I use them in mason jars. I have used other bulbs that were LED but they were more like a spotlight than a cove. Great lights. I uploaded a picture but the camera phone didn't show real amber when it was low. But they have a dull amber color.
