Is it the case that almost all LED bulbs now are warm white?

No, a lot of suppliers have the same design in warm or cool/daylight.


What about retail suppliers? It seems to me the ones in Morrisons,
Sainsbury's, John Lewis, Currys and Maplin are all warm white.


Ikea went all-LED about a year ago. Trouble is, the lamps stocked are
abysmally poor performance - I would have rejected those 2 years ago.


As cool white and daylight variants?

Home Bargains used to have some 6500K lamps and also 120 deg. GU10s. Last
time I looked the range was less.


But did the reduction in range reflect concentration on warm white
only?

My point was whether there is a move towards warm white at retail
level not the general properties of LED lighting. .
