LED lighting sources and the modern electronics employed in LED applications allow them to be much more versatile and controllable than other lighting technologies.
Kelvin temperature
While incandescent bulbs always provide the same 'warm white' colour, LED bulbs offer a wider range of colour temperatures (measured in Kelvins). These differences are useful in certain conditions. Choose "Warm White" to create a warm relaxing mood, while "Natural White" or "True White" with a blue tinge, are better suited for workplace environments. Studies show that a more natural 'daylight' white light is conducive to higher attention and concentration levels.
The chart below shows where they sit on the Kelvin scale.
Total control
LEDs are semi-conductors, so unlike the other light sources LED functions can be controlled with a microprocessor to achieve unique lighting effects. This is achieved by switching the light output of the RGBW channels of LEDs.By varying the output of each of the LED channels it allows the user to choose from millions of colours in order to create countless lighting effects and moods.
