Color temperature in light sources is a measurement of heat in degrees Kelvin (K). Color temperatures over 5,000 K, the hottest, are sensed as sharp, clear blue-white. In contradictory language the color of light delivered by this hot radiation is referred to as “cool.” Temperatures around 2,700–3,000 K, actually cooler, are perceived as warm in color, tilting toward yellow and red. The heat- light- color relationship is recognized in colloquial language; something that is “white- hot” is dangerously hotter than something “red- hot.”
