What is the color of light LEDs emit?
White light LED’s can be manufactured in a range of white colors. White light is measured on the color temperature scale in degrees Kelvin. White LED’s are typically grouped into 3 categories: • Warm White: Typically 2700-3500 K. This most closely matches the color of incandescent light and is the color of white light most used in the home to create a warm atmosphere. It has an underlying tone of yellow/orange. • Natural White: Typically 4000-5000 K. This color of light is brighter white and does not have a yellow component feeling. Natural white light is typically used for office, retail, basement, or workshop lighting environments. A traditional fluorescent tube light normally emits light in this range. Also metal halide lamps normally are within this range. • Cool White: Typically 6000-8000K. This color of white light tends to have a bluish tone. Lights in this category are typically used in manufacturing and high brightness environments.
