What Colour Temperature Actually Means
Colour temperature measures the warmth or coolness of light in Kelvin. 2700K is warm white, similar to incandescent bulbs. 3000K is warm white with a slightly brighter tone. 4000K is neutral white, 5000K is cool white, and 6000K is daylight white. The range 3000K-4500K indicates a tunable or variable output. Higher values appear bluer, lower values appear more yellow.
Where Each Temperature Belongs in Hotel Interiors
2700K suits guest rooms, lobbies, lounges and dining areas where a warm, inviting atmosphere is needed. 3000K works well in corridors, meeting rooms and business centres where clarity is important but warmth is still desired. 4000K is suitable for reception desks, fitness centres and retail spaces. 5000K and 6000K are best for back-of-house areas, corridors with high traffic, or spaces where task lighting is required, but are not recommended for guest-facing areas.
Dimmable Options and Their Use
Several Jedaz fittings are noted as dimmable. One model supports a range from 2700K to 6000K, allowing colour temperature adjustment across the spectrum. This is useful in multi-functional spaces where lighting mood needs to shift throughout the day. Dimmable fittings allow control over both brightness and colour tone, but only if the driver and control system support it.
Light Source Types and Their Impact
Jedaz fittings use SMD LED at 6W, 10W, 16W, 18W, 20W and 24+24W. COB LED at 3.5W 3000K is used in some models. SMD LED plus G9 and G9 LED are also available. The light source type affects beam spread, efficiency and colour consistency. SMD LEDs offer even distribution, while G9 sources are compact and often used in accent lighting. The choice of source affects the final light output and colour rendering, but the exact values are not specified in the catalogue.
How to Specify the Right Temperature for Your Project
Start with the room function and desired mood. Use 2700K or 3000K for comfort-focused areas. Use 4000K for clarity and modernity. Use 5000K or 6000K only where task performance is critical. If a model is dimmable, confirm whether the dimming range includes the full colour temperature span. Always verify the light source and wattage in the approved drawing before production.
