R Red Peppers HOtter?

Are Red Peppers hotter than theyre counterparts of the yellow or brown/choc ,orange,etc. in your opinions i havent had the chance yet to tatse test them yet. tis is for those who have tried for say a white 7pod compared to orange 7pod forsay. choc scorp compared to red scorp? just curious if you have experiene with im all ears.
 
Never tried any scorps or 7pots with color other than red.

My opinion with habs is in order as such; mild to wild

White
Yellow
Peach
Orange
Red
Chocolate

Chocolate being the hottest of the "general" Habaneros.

Most of the Trinidad Congo Habs are hotter than the above.

Then there are the exceptions like the Carribean Red Hab and the Red Savina hab. These are among the hottest of all habs but both are red.
 
So far the reds seem to be the hottest with the super-hotties (7pod, scorpion, bhut, and nagas etc.)
Most other colored super-hotties are/were just crosses with the reds which in my opinion would no longer make them true 7pods, scorpions, and nagas etc.
