Moonlight & LED CCT analysis from Benya Burnett Consultancy,  Davis CA.
“After the city staff reviewed available options, it was determined that the 4,000K CCT color temperature and the perceived increased brightness of fixtures were the primary causes of the negative public reaction. Several remedial actions were considered, but ultimately in October 2014, the decision was made to replace 650 of the already installed fixtures in residential areas and all remaining LED fixtures with Leotek 19-watt Green Cobra Jr., producing approximately 1800 lumen at 2700 Kelvin (soft-white). In addition, the installation would increase the number of house-side shields to reduce glare and light trespass” Davis, California article here by Volt.org - more LED RetroFit Streetlights.

This spectrum analysis shows the comparison of the natural moonlight and LED at 4000 Kelvin. The blue spike makes LED unique and problematic. Blue is daytime for your body and health issues are now being connected to blue lighting from LED streetlights, cell phones, computers, and televisions. Apps can be used to ‘filter blue’ out at nighttime on your cell phone(s). GLARE and REFLECTION of bright outdoor lighting are unintended consequences which start in brochures and end up hurting our outdoor, nighttime, environment. High Kelvin numbers - above 3000K, create a light source that is like daylight for people and wildlife. These make it hard to see into the nighttime and when one all night are ‘blinding’. Blue spike can be reduced with 2700-3000K LED streetlight models. These ‘soft-white’ 2700 Kelvin LED fixtures often reduce glare and allow better night vision for pedestrians and bicycles. Soft-white LED can be found for your home too and are often 2700 Kelvin. Many cities are now picking streetlights below 3000K. Soft-white and dimmer LED models allow good vision at night while providing even better energy savings.

Options for LED for your home… We can all benefit from LED lighting. In our homes, ‘soft-white’ bulbs are typically rated at 2700 Kelvin. Check on back of case before you buy new lighting for your home or business. See Cree LED example below - right. Good news includes more energy efficient and LED are not very hot. Special dimmers are necessary but they save more energy then old ‘watt’ dimmers.
