I've many evidences that LED can often have a lower CRI than even halophosphors fluorescents. I was in an extreme situation in the past at Dr. Pizza. They have a generic 6500K LED floodlight and there where several Osram L 36W/765 China, nearby. Surprisingly, the light from the Osram L 36W/765 China was much more pleasent to my eyes than the light from the 6500K LED floodlight.

Leicester (within the official city boundaries) is also being invaded by LED street lights. Having been down some of the streets at night now on my bike on the way home from work, I can report that the light reminds me of the old MV lit streets, with similar colour appearance and light intensity, so at least in that respect it is OK.

Hopefully the city is using 7000K color temp LEDs.

6500K Color Temperature Kelvin lighting works for me. I use 6500K CFL in all my incandescent light fixtures. I use 6500K Flurescent bulbs in my flurescent fixtures. I hope prices get better and hope I find 6500K LED lighting in the future. I love energy efficient and Energy Star products. Way to go!

Dor123: I feel bad for you and I agree with you that they are idiots.  I can forsee a LOT of maintenance issues, since I know that LED fixtures never last their rated life, and lumen output as well.  They might be saving money by going LED. but in the end, it could cost depending on how many failures they have to deal with.   Like some folks said in the previous posts, You won't ever find an LED lamp in my home!
