Feels like a hint in a game level. The bright light indicates the path forward; Maybe there is a secret nearby.

Don't forget to cut down any nearby bushes and smash anything resembling a porcelain pot to see what's inside.

This reminds me of the temperature of lights that my backyard neighbors have. Everyone is entitled to their own preferences when it comes to light bulb temperature... until they do it wrong.

[–] collegefurtrader@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve been know to just replace the bulbs. For example the walking path around my last apartment.

normalize fixing the environment around you

Some kinds of lights turn "warmer" the longer they burn, so maybe this one was just recently swapped and is actually from the same box as the others

[–] Natanael@slrpnk.net 12 points 1 year ago

This one is too different, definitely a different LED

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 8 points 1 year ago

I can hit that toggle switch for you… for $400.

[–] Lexam@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

The spectrum difference indicates that the cold bulb has been changed out for an LED model. The others most likely will be changed out as well as they fail.

[–] Zak@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

LEDs can be warm. Someone just selected a mismatched bulb.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i can all but guarantee these kinds of fixtures have never used incandescent bulbs and are not even designed to handle the heat from them.

[–] Lexam@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You are correct. The yellow bulbs are most likely sodium bulbs. You would not use an incandescent bulb in that fixture.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I doubt they're sodium bulbs either, these are really modern fixtures and i see no reason for them to use anything other than LEDs, quite possibly not even in the form of standard bulbs.

[–] Lexam@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those are at least ten years old. And these do not contain standard house hold bulbs.

[–] sznowicki@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

All of them are pretty new LEDs. It’s built in 2021

[–] Talkurt@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

Break it: chaotic good.

Thant's mildly disappointing, more than infuriating... Unless you have anger issues of course
