FUN high CRI LED strips

Europeans already have access to Philips ExpertColor MasterLED, CRI97 R9>85, in either 12v GU5.3 or GU10 mounts.

However, it is 4000k which might be too yellow for some (probably have to mix in some 6500k), whereas the GE is 5000k.

To quote my previous post . . .

Agreed, there is lots of good value LED stuff around, but as mentioned above it’s not the CRI that’s particularly important - with the LED’s mentioned in the OP it’s specifically that these LED’s can fairly closely match the spectral response of natural sunlight in a way that most other LED’s fail miserably at, that makes them of interest.

The only spectrum graph I can find for the Philips units is this:

Which is quite a way off natural sunlight if I'm reading it correctly:

CRI measurements on lights equal or below about 4000K are based on tungsten lights not daylight.
