got curious so I went there, found

    Very Good CRI: is 82+ for all white lamps below

    3 Color Temperatures: 3000K (warm white), 4100K (cool white),
6400K (daylight)

Curiouser (per Lewis Carroll, more curious per spellcheck (which
doesn't check ?!) )

How can these obviously quite different lamps all have 82 CRI (didn't
notice the "+")

So I read up a bit on CRI... which led to the conclusion that
 using CRI to evaluate a non-continuous-spectral source
is very likely to be misleading(*)


the search for info veered tangentially off to

http://lowel.tiffen.com/edu/color_temperature_and_rendering_demystified.html

from the camera filter people, which I thought was a pretty good presentation.


(*) also lead to the conclusion that studying CRI too deeply can
induce headaches
