Yellow LEDs ? « on: April 23, 2023, 06:34:42 PM » Author: wide-lite 1000
With all if the discussions about the purple LEDs lately I figured I mention something I've seen alot lately , lemon yellow LEDs !  My doctor's office has some : https://www.lighting-gallery.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=5209&pos=20&pid=163547 And last night when I went out for dinner , a significant amount of the 2,700k LEDs in the restuarant were also the same lemon yellow color .  WHY

I'm seeing the yellow ones WAY more than purple and only in 120v commercial settings . THe purple color atleast looks kinda cool , the yellow is just sickening !

That would look better than these things ! They look like  a 5,000k LED behind an yellow lens !

Quote from: BT25 on April 23, 2023, 06:45:56 PM This usually happens due to inadequate thermal management, therefore the phosphor coating on the blue LED's degrades quickly. I would not say the phosphor itself, but the material covering it, to me it looks like it had browned out from heat and intensive blue exposure, so starts blocking the direct blue light from the LED die. In any case it is a questionable design indeed.
