RGB vs. LED (cold, warm, neutral light)

To better understand the difference between RGB and White LED, you need to see exactly what these names mean and how they are used to create a pleasant interior environment. 

RGB is a combination of primary colors, used to create various colors. In general, the colored lights in clubs, bars, keyboards and speakers contain such type of colored light, creating a special ambient effect. 

If you understood the secret of combining several colors in the drawing to get a new one, surprisingly, the same effect is obtained with light, creating an atmosphere of maximum relaxation and relaxation.

RGB precisely represents the initials of the primary colors red, green and blue (Red, Green, Blue) and bears the name of the additive color representation system. Additive mixing involves the appearance of colors obtained from lights lit at the same time, but with different intensity. Each intensity has a numerical correspondent and each color is established based on a mathematical equation. 

A suggestive example of the RGB additive color system is the one found in computer, laptop and television screens. Only with the help of a magnifying glass will you be able to see that each pixel is made up of a red, green and blue sub-pixel. 

RGB colors are the result of combinations of the main colors red, green and blue. In order to obtain a mix of colors, one must first take into account their intensity. Regarding electric light, each intensity has a numerical value and various combinations can be made such as: 

• Red + green = yellow

• Red + blue = magenta

• Blue + green = cyan

• Red + blue + green = white

RGB light helps to obtain a diversity of colors from light orange to blue. These are often found in LED strips and there are several models, like this: 

1. Classic RGB 

This is a LED strip with triple diodes in shades of red, green and blue on one diode. The simultaneous use of the three diodes helps to form white light. If you use a RGB led strip classic, white light may contain traces of other colors. This will contain diffuse traces of light blue, which differentiates it from the light obtained by a White LED.

2. RGBW 

It represents a LED strip with triple diodes (red, green and blue on one diode) and a white diode for white light pure. Due to the distance between the two diodes of the same color, the light cannot be distributed uniformly and the distinction between the light beams is easy to see.

3. RGB+W 

This is short for the type of LED strip with red, green, blue and white quadruple diodes on one diode and contributes to a uniform and pleasant lighting in any color.

How it works RGB light and where can it be used?

Most colors can be produced by mixing different amounts of the three primary colors, which makes it possible to achieve dynamic color control, resulting in an extremely diverse palette of shades.

Color combinations are obtained by mixing all three colors from the RGB system and the color white. This one lighting system it could be used for anything light fixture with white light. However, this is very rarely used because it does not produce an immaculate white, but a white with slight shades of color. 

If there are 3 different colors lit at the same time, only one can be distinguished because they are very close to each other. 

RGB light it is often used on laptops and televisions and creates a pleasant atmosphere in the house, but also on terraces or show stages, bars or restaurants. This type of light is sometimes used as a substitute for conventional light.

LED technology it comes with a lot of advantages, among which the possibility of a reduced starting voltage and energy consumption stand out reduced. Compared to conventional lighting, led bulbs they are identified by a more economical energy consumption, although they have an identical light power. 

RGB diodes have an increased lifespan, so they last for tens of thousands of hours, being impressively robust. Given the fact that the starting voltage is very low, the LED lights can be operated through a normal line and a household fuse.

Therefore, RGB light it can be used almost indefinitely. The technology requires very little space and is integrated into bulbs of the same size as conventional incandescent, halogen models and fluorescent 

It fits perfectly in various light sockets: from recessed spotlights to ambient lights. It is used both for the efficient lighting of access ways in the garden or desk lamps, for the lighting of kitchens, verandas or hallways, creating a very pleasant atmosphere in the whole house. 

The choice of color allows you to adjust the brightness in such a way that it perfectly matches your mood. A clear and calm light will provide that dose of relaxation and good mood that everyone needs. RGB LEDs provide uniform lighting and harmonious, that's why they are ideal for reading corners, studios or hobby rooms.

what does it mean color temperature for LED bulbs?

To choose the right LED bulb, you must take into account color temperature - warm white, neutral white or cool white. Warm white light corresponds to low temperatures (2700-3200K), cold white light corresponds to higher temperatures (over 6000K) again neutral light it gets stronger somewhere in the middle. 

In general, people are used to using classic light bulbs, that's why warm white light it is in the top of most users' preferences.  However, neither do the others types of light available are not negligible. In order to achieve a chromatic harmony in the interior, you must take into account some basic criteria. So, in a room painted in white and pastel colors, warm white light it fits best and if the walls are painted in dark colors it is the most suitable cold white light.

Take into account all these aspects to be able to create a particularly pleasant atmosphere both in the working and relaxing spacesre.
