Color-Rite Technology is based on the Color Rendering Index (CRI) – a scale from 0-100 that indicates how a light source reflects color variations as they appear to the human eye. The higher the CRI, the more vibrant the colors appear. On the scale, lights that measure 90+ are considered “high” CRI lights and are critical for tasks requiring the most accurate color discrimination. A perfect 100 would enable us to see colors as they appear in natural sunlight.
Color temperature is also an important measurement when it comes to Color-Rite Technology. Color temperature is expressed in Kelvin (K) units, which measure the temperature and color produced by LEDs. The Kelvin scale goes from warm (yellow tone) to cool (blue tone). Most LEDs used in Streamlight’s Color-Rite products are rated 3,000K to 4,000K, which is considered a warm, white color.
Flashlights equipped with Streamlight’s proprietary Color-Rite Technology allow users to see the color spectrum as they would in natural light. While a standard high-lumen LED light produces an ultra-bright white beam that is needed in many applications, it prevents seeing subtle color differences in, for example, auto body paint colors or electrical wiring. In contrast, a high CRI light provides a softer, warmer beam to prevent color “washout,” allowing the user to see specific colors or imperfections and subtle details, regardless of the task.
Streamlight offers a family of Color-Rite lights for situations that require detailed inspections or color differentiation. For markets as diverse as automotive, industrial, law enforcement, military, and even outdoor recreation, we have developed high CRI lights with Color-Rite Technology for a wide variety of tasks that require exacting attention to detail. From repairing electrical wires to inspecting paint finishes or examining forensic evidence, count on Streamlight’s Color-Rite products to help get the job done efficiently and safely.
