I got some of the bottle bulbs in my H12 OBS yurt, and they work very well.
I currently have 4, all in standard 0,5-0,7Liter bottles, intending to add
5 more.
The light is sufficient for being in the yurt, and doesn't disturb
sleeping during the day (it's not that strong).
Of course, it doesn't give any light at night.
