The maximum value is 100, which means, the closer the CRI of a lamp comes to 100, the better the colour rendering of this lamp. This maximum value of 100 theoretically stands for the optimum colour representation of the wavelengths we perceive.<\/p>\n<h3>ORIGIN<\/h3>\n<p>The CRI was introduced especially for the evaluation of fluorescent tubes in comparison to conventional incandescent lamps. It is the average of 8 measured colours. The more demanding value &#8220;Re&#8221; (e=extended) is now averaged from 14 colours and also quickly separates the wheat from the chaff of LED lamps. The problems often arise especially in the warm colours. Clear differences are found mainly in violet and red tones, here many LED illuminants have great weaknesses.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-2216\" src=\"https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/DIN_Test_6169.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Today<\/h3>\n<p>In recent years, much more differentiated indices have been developed in order to better assess LED light sources. For example the &#8220;GAI&#8221; and &#8220;TM-30-15&#8221;. These are often used by museums or the film industry, where correct colour rendering is essential.<\/p>\n<h3>SEGULA LED LAMPS AND THE CRI<\/h3>\n<p>For light source packaging, the indication is limited to the CRI, as this is completely sufficient for normal use. Nevertheless, we at SEGULA have all indices tested and evaluated in our laboratories, because we want to ensure that we meet all requirements and can ensure application in all areas!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2218\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2218\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2218 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel-1024x349.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel-1024x349.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel-300x102.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel-768x262.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel-1536x523.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.segula.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Wattson-mit-Apfel.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2218\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Watt\u00b4son with CRI 80, 90 and 100<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The light sources, especially in the Vintage, <a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.segula.shop\/en\/ambient-dimming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ambient<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.segula.de\/shop\/led-serien\/soft-line\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Soft Line<\/a>, have consistently very good CRI values and are ideal for demanding applications, such as in restaurants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the CRI &ndash; and what does it tell about LED lamps?
