Hello,
what color temperature (in Kelvin) do your LEDs have in your home? Have you chosen a brighter light color for the kitchen and bathroom? I have read that you should use at least 4000K in the kitchen. Has anyone done this? What about exterior lighting—do you also prefer around 4000K there?
Best regards,
Sabine

Don’t you find 2700K a bit too yellow? Are LEDs with higher lumens less yellow, or does that not make a difference?Brightness does not affect color, and color is not related to brightness! The color doesn’t change when you dim the LEDs either. We have LEDs throughout the entire house, as well as halogen lamps. If halogen lamps don’t seem too yellow to you, then 2700K is fine. To repeat: the important factor is the “color rendering index” (CRI) – I used the wrong term in my first post. If the CRI is low, the light appears unnatural, and surfaces that are illuminated reflect unnatural colors.
LEDs with a high CRI are less bright at the same power. To put it simply: bright LEDs (> 350 lumens) at 2700K with a CRI above 90, and also dimmable, are not exactly cheap and are usually not found in typical hardware stores.
