So I have been looking into how color temperature converts to wavelength with respect to PAR, and I stumbled over Wien's Law. I may be wrong in my assumptions so I wanted to see what other people think.
Basically you can derive the peak wavelength of a given color temperature via Wien's Law. There is a calculator on Wolfram Alpha and also I found this page that with a description and example of the law.
Based on WA's calculations, would it not be safe to assume that people using fluorescent lights need a combo of lights between 6000-6700K and 4500K lights?
4500K - 643.95nm
6000K - 483nm
6700K - 432.5
What do you think?
