Hi.  I ordered on Amazon as suggested and received two replacements.  No issue, just want backups.

No issue with lights, just anticipating replacing one at some point.  Thanks!

The one issue for me with these lights is they are so stark white, which is harsh on the eyes. I wish there was a way to make the light warmer? I was thinking on spraying on a translucent paint or taping the inside of the caps with something to warm them up? Any ideas?

Maybe something like this? Only issue will it be too yellow and not warm like normal warm lights.

If you do it, try first with a piece of plastic cut to fit in the fixture. That way if you don't like it you won't have messed up your light. I just mounted a couple of lights that run on rechargeable batteries that are softer.  Sometimes I need the bright light.

Rather than add a filter, you could look into getting bulbs with a lower color temperature. Its measured in degrees Kelvin. This link explains the scale.
