Do Edison lights come in LED?

Do LED Edison bulbs look good?
LED filament bulbs, also known as Edison bulbs, offer a wide variety of warm color temperatures ranging from 1800K-3000K. Much like a candlelight, these light bulbs provide a soft glow to any space.
Are Edison bulbs healthy?
The cool temperature (4000K – 6000K) emitted by LED light bulbs could actually be harmful to us and should not be used at night. So besides being an amazing gorgeous light bulb to look at, the vintage Edison light bulbs will actually help you sleep better at night and can save you from a list of harmful diseases.
What is the brightest LED Edison bulb?

Do all Edison bulbs glow yellow?
A lower number means the light will appear more yellow, while the higher the number means the light will appear whiter or bluer. The color of the incandescent bulbs we were used to is around 2700K. Any number higher than this will be a whiter color and lower will be more yellow.
How long do LED Edison bulbs last?
With these lights you still get the vintage look of Edison light bulbs, but instead of only having about 1000 Lumen-hours, LED filament bulbs have approximately 15,000 life hours. However, this is much shorter than the average Lumen life of regular LED bulbs which typically last around 50,000 hours on average.
Do LEDs damage eyes?
Chronic exposure to LED lights can speed up the ageing of retinal tissue, leading to a decline in visual acuity and an increased risk of eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Are all Edison bulbs amber color?

Do LED Edison bulbs get hot?
They burn out quickly, they are easily breakable, they run “hot” and they require a lot of electricity to light. Choosing LED bulbs with exposed filaments lets you have it all: the vintage flair of an classic bulb, and the function and efficiency of a modern LED.
Why do Edison light bulbs turn black?
Why CFL Light Bulbs Turn Black Most CFL bulbs burn out when the ballast overheats, and the electronic component inside, the Voltage Dependent Resistor (VDR), opens. This is similar to your fuse box shutting off the circuit in your home. In both cases, a small amount of heat is present, and possibly some smoke.
