Nah 3kK is cool enough for work unless you're like a graphic designer that needs to see colours accurately. 2.7kK for the rest of the house btw

I just have bulbs that can change the light temperature

[–] GreenBeanMachine@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I need those blues though to keep me awake

[–] Multiplexer@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 2 days ago

Exactly.

Changing the lights in the office room to the brightest daylight variant I could find and adding an additional 5000 Lux desk lamp during winter months was a gamechanger for focus and productivity.

Still enjoy the warm glow of the living room lights in the evening, though.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If you paint you need those 5000 ones or your paintings will look like shit.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Meanwhile all the good paintings were from before lights were invented

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

That's why art studios had only windows letting the north light enter. Roughly same uniform cool light all day.

Until the invention of the paint tube (and rail) so you could paint outside.

[–] GamingChairModel@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I would think that accurate color representation would've generally required the bright lights and broad spectrum coverage of sunlight, so I imagine people just...painted during the day, by daylight.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Except for the cave paintings, that’s exactly the case.

[–] dukatos@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Good luck doing any soldering with that.

[–] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I solder with 2700k lighting all the time for extended periods of time. Not sure what the problem is.

[–] dukatos@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

Shadows are soft and pertinax color doesn’t help.

I have 2700k spots at my work desk's soldering station, I honestly couldn't tell you why but I prefer it. Maybe because I've always had warm lighting when soldering. Makes me wanna get neutral or cold spots and try that for a change.

For me the bigger issue is light intensity, I swear the old lighting setup at that work desk was as bright as a grave light... dunno how anyone could use that.

[–] r00ty@kbin.life 4 points 2 days ago

My eyesight is shot now. Pretty much all soldering I do with a microscope that has daylight LEDs on anyway.

[–] r00ty@kbin.life 7 points 2 days ago

I don't know. I feel like I'm more alert and the brain is more active with 4k+ in the day time (on days when there's low light outside). But in the evening I want it down to 2700k or so, in order to get a proper sleep cycle.

Yup. Humans and physics are weird.
