I'd also look to see if an LED strip could be what you really want from RGB lights. I've purchased two RGB bulbs but they are actually disconnected right now as they were more of a novelty and my kids kept wanting to play with them and it drove my wife and I nuts.
Unlike the LED strips, we've been able to use the RGB for a lot of different scenes we are proud about beyond just dimming.
Here's a post on using them for a night-light for my kids. When my kids get a bit older I'll be installing a button or a Pico so they can turn on "reading mode" which will be a different setting.
Yes! But to be honest, a hobby you will LOVE, and to be frank, perfect right now in the midst of COVD-19.
