The different colour temperatures of LED lights and how to choose the best ones.>

One of the great benefits of LEDs is that they come in different colours/shades of white, which can be used to create an optimised ambience in your home.

Kelvin is a unit measurement for the colour temperature of light, and is used to determine the shade of white rendered by LEDs. Below you can see a chart of where the most popular LED colours sit on the kelvin chart: Kelvin *Please note: The measurements on this chart are based on the LUMiLife products we supply at LEDHut.co.uk.
