What does it all mean?
The ‘K’ is an abbreviation for KELVIN which is a temperature scale.
A higher ‘K’ value results in more colour.
A lower ‘K’ value results in more usable light.
4300k – factory fitted spec
6000k – is what we all really want (generally speaking) – it gives you an ice white finish with a hint of blue.
8000k – best described as iceburg white, it has more blue in it than white, and the colour of 8000k has a distinct blue overture.
10000k – is blue, again not something we like to advise but some of us out there just want a blue finish.
12000k – gives of a slightly magenta finish – not a road legal colour.
The most popular hid colour is 6000k.
