LED it's more power efficiencient . However, there are LED light bulbs that have some kind of filter that makes it more ambient and astronomy friendly. Normal white LEDs are a nightmare for astronomy, because his light spectrum it's hard to block with any kind of "anti light pollution" filters.
- Obscurity4340 3y agoIs there any correlation between wealthy districts and poor districts in terms of type of light used? I feel like everyone would want to accomodate the rich areas and make sure they can see the night sky and sleep and not have the unpleasent "poor" flurorescent/led "cost-savings" light
- Obscurity4340 3y agoIts basically prison light, I would only ever use it to wake up in the morning. Anybody who seriously uses it to save money in a frequented space or in place of proper soothing ambient light is a bit off in my view. It makes me unhappy and feel beyond agitated whenever I am compelled to be around it.
- rickydroll 3y ago2800k LEDs are not filtered white light afaik. A bit of background for those who may not be aware, white LEDs are UV LEDs with a white light emitting phosphor. I suspect 2800 K LEDs are a UV LED with a 2800 K light-emitting phosphor.
- Obscurity4340 3y agoWhats the orange one? I've seen pics of streetlamps like that unless its a MandelaEffect or somethint
- Doxin 3y agoYou might be thinking of sodium vapor lights
- Obscurity4340 3y agoYes! Why doesn't everyone just use these? Where there's astronomical concerns or people agree its just a nice and worthwhile end to be able to see the night sky, maybe use the low-pressure sodium but yeah. Edit: I wonder what gets used in "rich" places in contrast to "poor" places. I feel like rich people get the night sky and poor people get headaches and insomnia. So sick of this shit
