Temperature

In the past, bulbs were chosen mainly by wattage. Today, CCT—Correlated Color Temperature provides a clear way to specify light.

Color Temperature (CCT): The Standard

· Measured in Kelvins (K): Defines the hue of light.
· 2700K–3000K: Warm white, like incandescent lamps, common in homes.
· 3500K–4100K: Neutral white, typical in offices and retail.
· 5000K–6500K: Daylight white, close to noon sunlight, used in workshops and color-critical areas.

Choosing the right CCT ensures consistent, purpose-driven lighting.
