There is nothing inherently bluer about LED technology. LEDs are readily available in color temperatures down to 1600K.
- Reason077 10y agoExactly. There are plenty of great quality LEDs around that emit beautiful, warm light and have absolutely no flicker. But LEDs get a bad rep because there are so many garish blue-white, flickering, junk ones flooding the market.
- leoedin 10y agoThis isn't correct. Most white LEDs use a blue LED which is shone on some phosphors which then emit a broader spectrum of yellow light. The ratio of yellow to blue light determines the colour temperature perceived. Some of that blue light will always get through, so white LEDs (even "warm" ones) will always have a blue light component to them. http://www.photonstartechnology.com/learn/how_leds_produce_white_light http://www.photonstartechnology.com/learn/how_leds_produce_w...
