>If cities want to use LED street lamps, they should be <3000K correlated color temperature, with as little blue light as possible. Agreed that as "little blue as possible" is preferable, however, 1900K at high lumens should be the target, IMHO. Man is adapted to see at night via firelight and 1900K hits the mark. Actually performed this experiment at home... After having used clear bulbs for far too long, bought several of the following for our living room: http://www.verbatimlighting.com/prod/led-lighting/candle-led/vxrgb-true-candlelight-led-lamp/candle-led-sku-98423/ http://www.verbatimlighting.com/prod/led-lighting/candle-led... The "feel" of the room is entirely different, particularly when unwinding after work. "Cozy seat at the fireplace" best describes it. Our baby falls asleep gazing at the bare bulbs. Conversely, for the locals loitering to rap in our alley, bought a "clear" 150w mercury vapor fixture and bulb from e-Bay. Installed the light and even the cockroaches no longer venture into that eerie glow. If the mercury vapor alone doesn't solve the loitering issue, one can purposely damage the fixture's transformer so it produces an intolerable buzz. Perhaps the correct lighting depends on the situation.
