You literally linked a music sync RGB bulb. Do you really expect your college student you’re sending away to not use the party mode? They aren’t just gonna sit in their room with a 10% power red light. Well maybe your kid will, but that isn’t an “every college student” kinda thing. Not everyone has sensitive eyes and for most people these are luxuries.
All these options are about half as much and still dimmable.
So looking at what you sent only the middle light bulb is actually any more efficient the other two are ether equal or more expensive in electric bill.
Though thank you for adding these. While in my personal case RGB overweights the one that would be a tad cheaper. For others it may be a definite option for those without as serious as eye problems. As I do.
On a dimmer set to 10% all of these bulbs will be more efficient than the RGB ones you linked because they will not have to run a computer and WiFi/BT hotspot in perpetuity. They will simply be on for 10% of the time. You could also probably get some red tinted films to place over the light fixtures.
