Install a dimmer switch? We replaced the stock Hampton Bay fan/light in our bedroom with a clear glass, kinda industrial style fixture with LED Edison bulbs on a dimmer switch, so we can turn that light on really low or really bright if we need to. I hate overhead lighting typically, but the low light is super warm colored and great to have on when we're in there but still up.
I'm a dimmer switch advocate...no one should ever get blasted with a full-strength bulb when they're trying to wind down from the day or first waking up. Just put dimmer switches in every room.
Oh, it's on a smart dimmer already. The placement in the room relative to where I sleep/lie in bed makes it super annoying even at low light, so I'd rather just replace the full thing with something more useful or at least nicer looking.
