In my opinion a candle or a campfire is the gold standard for the healthiest light to use at nighttime. Fire is extremely warm (<2000K), dim, and contains a vast amount of red + infrared light. This is the signal humans have used to wind down for all of existence.
A warm incandescent is almost identical to a candle or campfire light spectrum and that is why I think they are the best option for night time lighting in a modern world.
Red LEDs are cool and have been the mainstay recommendation in the biohacking world for years now. However I am not a fan of purely red light, the lack of infrared, the high flicker, or the high price point for a higher quality version.
This is why we have made low wattage, ultra warm and Edison style incandescents (2100K) @daylightco - so everyone can access a low cost and high quality nighttime lighting. The bulbs sold out in 3 days when we launched but are now back in stock!
