Color Temperature is a characteristic of visible light that has important applications in lighting, photography, videography, publishing, manufacturing, astrophysics, and other fields. The color temperature of a light source is the temperature of an ideal black-body radiator that radiates light of comparable hue to that of the light source. |
Color temperature is conventionally stated in kelvin, having the unit symbol K. To illustrate better this point, we introduce an accompanying table of comparisons between different light sources. |

| LED bulbs advantages: |
- consume up to 80% less energy than conventional incandescent bulbs
- high efficiency - current LEDs can produce 100 lumens using just 1 watt of power
- small size
- resistance - from CFL fluorescent bulbs, LED bulbs are harder to destroy (shock resistance)
- cost savings are guaranteed for product lifetime
- lifespan of at least 10 years (vs. 1-2 years for conventional incandescent bulbs)
- risk of burns is very reduced because of the low operational temperature
- withstand frequently on/off operations
- light at maximum intensity immediately after switching on
- offer a greater spectrum of light (light temperature)
- provided light is clear, strong or weak, as the case
- not containing mercury, an advantage if they relate to neon
