LED Lighting Colour Temperature Comparison Warm, Cool, Daylight 4K

LED Lighting Colour Temperature Comparison Warm White 3000k, Cool White 4000k, Daylight 6500k #LedLighting #WarmWhite #CoolWhite #Daylight #Led

I love the color temperature of a good old fashion incandescent bulb, and for me that is 3000K all day long. 2700K (or less) is too yellow (with LED's it looks fake) and anything higher than 3000K is just to cold and clinical IMO. Although some folks seem to like fluorescent lights in kitchens and elsewhere in their home. That is insane IMO, that harsh of a light is just soul sucking. Like sitting under fluorescent lights all day, no thankyou, that is only good for certain types of work for short periods.

[@Kirasinn69]

Yes. I prefer 3000k all the way. 2700k maybe for focus area like bedside for more cozy n relaxing

[@SRH874]

Brilliant, clear demonstration that has helped me decide which colour temperature to go for. Thanks Dave.

[@impala78170]

I love your accent! :) And your explanations are very clear.

[@biggkoz]

Great demonstration of these light shades

[@RolyPolyUnicorn]

Thank you for this video. It is VERY much appreciated!!

[@mwoxo]

Takes a Geordie to give a clear explanation of the differences. Canny job mate 😊

[@arrowelectricaldurham]

Cheers mate, appreciate it 👍

[@Mshighlyfavoured]

@@arrowelectricaldurham so if i go 2700k is it definitely yellow on both daylight, coolwhite and warm white, or yellow just on warm white.

[@zeek1071]

Best video so far, very simple to understand. 👍

[@ianpearson8976]

i recently messed up with the description and got a bulb with a colour temperature totally unsuitable for my kitchen.i opted for daylight white but didnt realise this had a more blue tinge than daylight white.the colour was too cold and harsh but the warm white was too yellowy and not bright enough.

[@stalebread6343]

Thank you for such a concise demonstration!

[@allenschneider1847]

For a home office, with computer, is 4,000 K the best choice? My current home office has 3,000 k ligjts and im having a diifcult time getting my computer set (brightness) properly. Seem to have some glare or something. Im wondering if 4,000k would interact better?

[@morganrody67]

maybe turn off the room lights or at least down to get a better example.

[@sonalsharma6283]

Great video post., with good detailed explanation of which color temperature goes best according to the room. Many thanks. ☺

[@sonalsharma6283]

This was a very helpful demonstration. Many thanks. 🌸☺

[@jason.l6687]

I like your accent 😂😂😂😂very helpful video btw

[@vincentgeka9523]

How about with moon light

[@giobbymenta]

what does it mean "looking custody", is it good or bad?

[@mtm4a]

@giobbymenta - I think he meant at 0:42 a yellowy, "custardy" colour, as in apple pie and custard!! Although I suspect you may have made your comment tongue in cheek, no?!! 😀

[@giobbymenta]

@@mtm4a Ahh custardy, haha I couldn't make out the word. thanks

[@SachaVasiliev]

Thank you!

[@hotdiggity6846]

What about 1800k ''flame'' lights?

[@paulpoco22]

Replace G4 12V 10W Halogen with? Replace D19 120V 20W Xenon? Is D19 the same as G9?

[@valiant719]

Legend . Thx

[@AM-HillsideWorks]

Thank you 👍

[@hope_____x]

thanks alot ❤

[@gosman949]

What about 5000K? Where does it fit? I just went from 2700k to 5000k in my kitchen, and it is just too much of a change!

[@GrigRP]

No where. I never go above 4000K. 3000K is ideal. 2700K is too yellow.

[@gosman949]

@@GrigRP not that much difference in 300k! I love me some 2700k!

[@Drunken_Hamster]

4000k is not cool for 1. And for 2, I think the main problem is that manufacturers are inaccurate, and NONE of them are consistent. There should be industry standards set for LEDs where they have to be calibrated to within 100k of their rated color, and there should basically only be 3 tiers of lights based on color quality AKA "CRI" 85+, 90+, and 95+, with those being accurate to within a maximum of 1 CRI below their rating. And to make things simple for the customers, it should basically be 3 colors; or 5 at the absolute max. 3000k "warm white", 4000k "neutral white", 5000k "bright white" (or cool white) and if you extend it to 5 colors, a 2000k candlelight and 6000k "cool white" (or "blue-white") depending on what you call the 5000k. My theoretical favorite is 4000k. That is if I can ever get the damn chance to see a true-to-spec calibrated light.

[@Player_-lu5kh]

man you re right the 4000k is neutral but not the same as sun The sun is 5800K and the best is around that if 3 gu10 probably the best is use two 6000k and one 4000

[@CarmellaNYC]

If you have open concept kitchen living room do all the light colors need to be the same?

[@Drunken_Hamster]

@@CarmellaNYC That's the best practice, yes. The overheads need to match each other, and the accent/mood/task lighting should match between rooms, but the overheads and accents don't HAVE to match. IE if you have overheads at 4000k or 5000k, you can have your pendant/chandelier over your dining table be 3000k, 2700k, or 2200k, but you'll also want your reading lights in the living room to match that pendant if it's open concept.

[@ricardosanchezf]

Nicely informative

[@Moccalocca100]

3000k is good

[@_bharathab5806]

For living room size 12 x 24 feet which light would suggest... How many watts and which colour temp should I go for

[@electroumit]

Thanks.

[@NostalgiaforInfinity]

1:43 You've got that backwards. THAT is natural daylight. The sunlight you get on earth isn't white, but slightly yellowish-orange, due to the atmosphere absorbing the blue light a bit. So the 'daylight' at 1:03 is the actual cool light, because it looks "cold" and clinical due to its bluish tint.

[@znearix]

I need high cri lights

[@taxi_turvy]

you could have turned off the main lights

[@Bbaris-b]

4000k cool white ? ok.

[@ConalRF]

I've recently put in a B22 led corn bulb for the white bathroom. 8000k, 3500lm. It's so bright!

[@gosman949]

too bright!

[@GrigRP]

Sounds horrible.

[@ConalRF]

and the lampshade is all transparent and crystal like.

[@NostalgiaforInfinity]

8000k? What the hell were you thinking?

[@Kirasinn69]

Brah 8000k is slowly making u blind

[@bobstar2426]

2800K and no LED! CRI >90

[@SayWhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat]

4000K NEVER EVER IS CALLED COOL WHITE. COOL WHITE IS 6000K, 4000K IS USUALLY CALLED NATURAL WHITE.

[@lollycopter]

Depends on the manufacturer. The Osram brand that's available where I am call their 4000K cool white and 6500K daylight.

[@Music-vr7sz]

I've heard 4000k as cool white.

[@goodbyetothepeople92]

4000k is called cool white

[@daniel2milan]

4000k is natural light... Not cool white...

[@LeDebutDeLaSuite]

Yeah, 5000k would be Daylight and about 6000/6500k would be cool light. Companies throwing together light packs will arbitrarily name it "cool light" at some (actually) warmer light temperature such as 4000k
