Which colour of LED bulbs is preferred?

It would have been nice for Gary Vicker to define the temperature ranges for cool, neutral and warm white. As it is I find this a tad imprecise, For example: warm white for up to ≈3400K, neutral white from ≈3400K to ≈5000K, cool white from above ≈5000K or so.

Don’t you think?

The poll is OK.

But I think the whole CCT thing ( WW, NW, CW) needs to be redefined from the ground up. What’ K’ really constitutes WW, NW, & CW? What is really NEUTRAL WHITE & adds little or no tint…… warm or cool?

For example, there is exactly nothing “Neutral White” about a 4000K tint…. much less a 3400K. It is Warm White.

And there is nothing Cool White about 5000K. It is NEUTRAL WHITE…. simple as that.

For flashlights give me 5000K - 5700K. That is pretty much ‘TRUE NEUTRAL WHITE’. No rosy red tint added and no harsh blue added either.

YMMV…… mine does not. . .

The comments above are in relation to ‘emitters’ used in flashlights. The majority of people use flashlights mostly outdoors. These comments are adressing that.
