LED Colour Temperatures


Different shades of white LEDs are measured by their colour temperature on the Kelvin scale. High colour temperatures of over 5000K are said to be cool colours and typically have a blue tone to them. Low colour temperatures of 2,500 – 3,200 are said to be warm colours and have a yellow-orange tone to them.

Most white LED lamps fall under three basic categorical descriptions: warm white, pure white, and cool white. When the glow of the white LED light is slightly yellow, it’s typically around 3000° Kelvin, referred to as warm white. Pure white LED light measures at around 4500°K. Cool white light displays a reading of 6500K or more.
