PHYSICISTS!!! Hertz / Kelvin Relationship?
.
Every single bleeding CFL I find is either cool white but 11w or over 20w but warm white.
I already have the HPS and the bloody warm white CFL's. but I'm trying to fill out my HPS with CFL's in the 4 000 - 6 500 Kelvin bracket. So I found a bunch today which aren't marked with their color, but the shopkeeper thinks they're cool, towards green, which I think could mean around 4 000k, so I bought them.
Apparently there is some sort of relationship between Kelvin and Hertz? Can I work anything out from the 50 - 60 Hertz marking I found?

50-60 Hz is just the frequency of the electricity it needs to work, nothing to do with spectrum temps. Walmart has/had 6500 K cfls in a variety of wattages....not sure if there is a Danish equivilent to Walmart, Home Depot lol, but a large building supply/nursery/hardware store should have them...they are so common these days.

I've been all over the place today. They're everywhere. But people only want to buy 11w and warm white 20w, it seems, so thats what everybody stocks so far...
I have found one place, but the guy got a little too nosey, and I got nervous and left
