Rebel Neutral White, Nominal CCT 5000K vs. Rebel Neutral White Nominal CCT 4000K

[oldnslow]

In terms of using these two LED's, is there a consensus asto which of these is more desirable in outside use?

Oldnslow, that's a pretty good nickname you have there,

It's personal preference but I would say 4000K.

 

[Blindasabat]

I'd second 4000k.

 

[Lurveleven]

I think it is a matter of taste, I prefer the daylight look of 5000k, it looks more natural to me.

In my opinion, 5000K is closer to pure white, but for primarily outdoor use I'd take 4000K.

 

[Yoda4561]

Very much a matter of preference, but I'm deep in the 4000k camp for now.

When outdoors, the warmer the better

Rural or urban?
The 4000K neutral is better for rural.
The 5000K cool is better for urban.

 

[oldnslow]

thx for the replies.

To clarify:

Outdoors as in wildnerness.

lol!!! I usually find most questions have been asked and answered many times, so I try not to ask the same one again.

The big reason I returned to CPF was because my old ARC aaa was lost. Of course, upon my return I found the LED improvements substantial and have purchased six single aaa flashlights, one double cell aaa flashlight, four single cell AA and one double cell. Will of course be ordering several more AA's, which is what prompted my question.
