    Default What is your favorite WB?

    Just curious when using 532, 445, and a more orange red 637 640 642 what balance do you like?

    I seem to be happy with the 532 and 640 at a 1:1 with a bit heavier blue added almost a 1:1:2 532:640:445 . What about you?

    I am not asking what a calculator says or what is perfect white, I just want to know what everyone likes as I am sure all of out eyes see things different.

    637:532:445 i seem to get the best white with 1:1:1.

    Whats good is if you're using well made modules with well corrected beams, they are almost all the same diams. Obviously the G is still the smallest. but in the higher powers, where the Greens tend to be ~3mm+, the whites are even better because the beams are almost all perfectly the same sizes. (This is what makes OPSL colors Sooooooooo beautiful. All beams are IDENTICAL).

    Marc thanks for the info in you other thread about the brightness of 6w of 637. Been on the fence about building one up and tink you convinced me. Now if only the damn green was affordable.
