I wanted to install a "step light" to illuminate just the top step in a dark hallway.
Heat build-up with incandescent bulbs is a fire hazard issue,
and the motion detectors I've seen are not approved for CFL's.

I installed an interior step-light that uses a 4x4 array of LED's,
but it is way too bright... it lights up the entire hallway at night,
and the color is not to my liking.

So now I'm in the market for a colored filter to tone it down.
It might have been easier to just give everyone their own flashlight !
