What is the result of mixing (e.g. in a home light) several different color bins?
Will a warm white LED + a cood white LED give an intermediate color temperature (natural white)?
More precisely: I have bought several LEDs (Cree XR-E) from LED Lighting Supply. Mainly Q2 5A, but at the bin lottery I got also two 4D and two WG.
From several threads on CPF I understand that 5A gives the best color rendition, but I would also like to use my WGs as they are Q5 hence brighter. To counterbalance the resulting cool white, would using a warm white LED (6A?) do?
How good would the color rendition of a light made of the following five LEDs:

- Three 5A
- One WG
- One 6A
