There are so many different shades of white light bulbs, I am so overwhelmed walking down the light bulb aisle, and then I’m never happy with the one I choose, no matter which one I choose, I get it home and I put it in and I’m like, ugh, I don’t like THAT white
Color temperature range charts may be useful when going to try the next option (i kept a list of “nopes” in my wallet until i discovered I want shaded reading lamps, bathroom and kitchen lights all between 3800-4200 and everywhere else not above 3200 nor below 2800. YMMV, I enjoy warmer tone colors but not too warm or I’ll get sleepy/depressed).
Different temp-colors for different areas/tasks.
Omg but this is so helpful, I am so glad I am not the only person just completely bewildered by how many different tones are being labeled with a single word! This will help me so much!!!! Thank you!!!!
these tags are amazing, thank you for making my day hahahaha
From the tags of this post, I can let all of you know: Lots of people HATE cool white lights. Also, lots of people HATE warm white lights.
As for where I fall: Yes. I don’t want my white light to be yellow. I don’t want my white light to be blue. I want my white light to be white. So I am always striving to get as neutral as possible between warm and cool.
