 ~4000K - Neutral White 
 ~5000K - Cool white
 ~6000K - Day Light.
Thermal
  Solder point temperature raise @ 25°C ambient                        (°C)   34.9     11.6    LED Junction Temperature < 60°     - Excellent Life
 LED Junction Temperature <85°C    - Good Life
 LED Junction Temperature > 100°C - Poor life not recommended.

  Power supply PCB   Single side-FR4     Double side-  FR4    Life of normal capacitor - 1000 hours at 85°C
 High Life capacitor - 10000 hours at 105°C
 This factor causes lot of difference in life time of  the power driver.
  Capacitors      Single     Dual with Redundancy  
  Line filter circuit   No     Yes     Line filter protects the power supply from Power  Line Disturbances.
  Driver short circuit protection   Yes     Yes  
  Driver open circuit protection   Yes     Yes  
  Driver I/P surge protection  ?   Yes  
  IEC 61000-4-5  
 Sudden Surges due to Lightening or electrical
  disturbances will damage the driver so driver  should be immune towards  these surges.
  Driver transient protection   ?   Yes  
  IEC 61000-4-4 
 Electrical transients damage the electronic  components hence the design should ensure  proper immunity.
  Driver voltage dips and interruption protection   ?   Yes  
  IEC 61000-4-11 
 Electrical Line fluctuations will cause the driver to malfunction so  the driver should work well even in fluctuating power  conditions.  
  Temperature raise in power supply compartment                     (°C)   41     20    < 25°C - Good
 More the temperature raise more it degrades the
 life.
Mechanical
  Luminaire Cover   Plastic     UV Stabilised   Polycarbonate   sheet    UV Stabilised ---- retains whitishness hence better
 light output.
 Un Stabilised ---- turns yellowish/dirty white over period of  time  reducing light o/p.
  Housing type   Sheet Metal    ABS Plastic    Sheet Metal - Possibility of rusting and denting.
 ABS Plastic - No rust and dents more elegant.
  Ingress Protection   ?     IP30    IP Protected - no insect and dust entry more clean and more light.
 Non IP - Possibility of dust and insect entry making it dirty  and degrades light output .
Performance
  Case temperature raise above ambient (heat sink)                      (°C)   20.58     10.51    < 15°C - works well in Indian climatic conditions without  degradation in   light output.
  <30°C - moderate performance in Indian climatic conditions  with degradation in light output.
  >40°C - poor performance with higher degradation in light  output.
   24 X 7 Operation   ?     Yes  
  Operating Ambient temperature range                                         (°C)   ?     0 to 60  
  Warranty                                                                                              (years) 2   5  
  Life                                                                                                         (years)   10
