All of them as long as the light spectrum is ok. Lately i am converting more of my own lighting to 2700..3000K to balance out against the 4000K LED lighting i am under at my workplace

I prefer white (3500k) for fluorescent lighting. Cool white is okay, but only in the old 60 CRI halophosphate type tubes. Warm White is awful. I’m also partial to daylight, but it depends on my mood.
1.White 2. 60 CRI Cool White 3. Daylight 4. High CRI Cool White 5. Warm White

My preferences depends on the application. For interior residential, I prefer 2700K, or 3000K CCT, except in the kitchen where 5000K CCT @ 90 CRI is preferred. For residential exterior, I like 4100K CCT CFL for the low glare and visual clarity it gives. On roadways, I like 3000K CCT LED, or 2100K CCT HPS.

We have recently moved a clip on spot light to give us illumination into a wardrobe, and for the first time in years it has the correct lamp fitted. I had forgotten how nice the light from a tungsten filament reflector spot actually is.

For street lighting I would put HPS lamps instead of 6500K LED.HPS lamps are warmer and have less glare than LEDs in my town streets.

Putting up lights that are 6500K seriously affects the diurnal rhythm of humans disrupting their sleep patterns, and animals especially in rural areas as they become confused as to the time of day.

Mercury lamps that are not that far off from there, dont seem to cause any of the problems. Its caused by very specific lines in the spectrum and not well described by color temp alone
