As we all know Light Emitting Diodes lights are also called as solid state lighting devices with many potential benefits over other lighting such as
- No heat radiation from light
- Dimmable
- Can create any color without using filters
- Degree or focus can be changed with or without secondary optics
- No start up noise or humming noise
White LED lighting is used widely in the commercial sectors like Office, Factories, Hospitals and Hotels etc. The combination of Red, Green and Blue colors is used to make pure white light.
White LED comes in three different shades
1. Warm Whites
2. Cool White
3. Day Light
Warm White
Warm white tend to have slight yellowish tint like that of light in incandescent light bulb. Warm white is often used to replace incandescent clear mini lights. Yellowish tint in warm white enriches the warmness in homes like wood etc. So warm white LED’s are most commonly used in house hold lighting. As the color temperature of the warm white is that of the incandescent light bulbs they are more suitable for bedrooms, hallways and lounges. Color rendering of warm white is low due to addition of several phosphorus thus reducing the chip brightness.
Cool White
Cool White tends to have a bluish tint to the light giving a very cool feel. Cool white is ideal for work areas, kitchens, laundries, workshops and offices because it improves our ability to see the contrasts very easily due to bluer light tint. The color temperature is around 4000K and color rendering index is also high. Cool white is the natural color of LED light.
Day Light
LED can produce the same color as day light which means pure white. The color rendering index is very high and the color temperature is around 6000K equal to that of sunlight. Day light lights can be used in shops and places of entertainment (like malls, multiplex etc) where special effects are needed.
