[Shop-talk] LED heat output

[Karl Vacek]

One other thing - red light is generally much more tolerable for those with
trouble sleeping than blue light.  We had blue clock radios for years and
the light from those damn things just drilled through my eyelids.  Took a
long time to figure out why I couldn't sleep.  We switched to red-lighted
ones, and eventually added a large reddish salt lamp that casts a soft glow
over the entire bedroom, and the light doesn't bother me at all.  Jill had
no issues either way, but says she also sees the red light far less than the
blue light.

<snip> because of the way the bathroom is designed my wife found anything
plugged into an existing outlet to be to distracting when she was trying to
sleep.
So, I did a little electrical surgery on the fan light switches right by the
toilet.  I replaced the two existing switches with one double switch, then
put a hard-wired hallway light into the empty space.  Here is the one I
used:
