I guess that's my problem Jeremy Im always trying to explain why they work instead of how it works. kinda like teaching people how to drive manual I'd be talking about gear to rpm ratios and blah blah.

but yeah...larger K = less light = shift in color from yellow to blue to purple to pink.

Ultimately don't go above 6000 Kelvin or you should stick to white halogen bulbs because they are basically doing the same thing but cheaper.

Paul, it is all good. Some people just want to know that the microwave heats up the food, not the fact you're exciting water molecules into a frenzy to create that heat

lol I'd think the latter is more exciting to know. must be the nerd in me.

plus if there were companies that sell microwaves with advertising that says "special edition: now excites water molecules" you'd find it pretty ridiculous to not tell people that all of them do the same thing now wouldn't you.

same applies with those who fail to mention that higher Kevin is opposite of the effect they are trying to convey with those photoshopped pictures.
