minus-squareSomeAmateurlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·1 year agoI can’t say I miss incandescent bulbs, but holy fuck I miss the warm lighting they provided. Why does everything have to be so damn blue?
minus-squareNoSpiritAnimal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoNewer cars are coming with warmer LEDs. I have a '24 impreza and it’s almost perfect white now. The projector housings definitely help too. Those LED retrofits are the dangerous ones. The halogen style housings just spill light everywhere.
minus-squarexenspidey@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoWhat are you considering “perfect white”? Old headlights were a very warm white. Probably ~2500k or maybe even lower. Daylight is about 4800k
minus-squareNoSpiritAnimal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoHalogen headlights were usually about 3000k or up. 2500k is very orange. Peak Daylight is about 5000k to 6000k, sunrise and sunset are around 2000k to 3000k. Perfect, or Natural White, is right about 5000k.
