Experience with Ikea Tradfri bulbs

I have one of those as well, and my experience is the same; the lowest light level is very high. The lamp in question benefits from a high output, but we also use it as a hallway night lamp to make it easier for the kids to bother us at night. Hue bulbs generally seem to have a lower minimum level, and they announced a 100W equivalent bulb just now, so I will try that.
