      https://fluxometer.com/rainbow/#!id=Big Sky Gen5/High kelvin

      The big sky gen 5, at high kelvin has a TON of what looks like purple or violet as you call it, compared to all other settings you have listed. Do you think it really does look more violet on this setting compared to mid day or whatever the one that's the second highest kelvin?

        @Tungsten_smooth Generally things that you'd say visually "look violet" have both blue and red in them. But the "ultraviolet" end of the spectrum is higher energy wavelengths. Does that make sense?

          Yeah, we can't see UV.

            @lorna O.K. that was my original thought -- we can't see anything past blue. The way herf worded it was a bit over my head, and it wasn't clear if it made a visual impact. The fluxometer makes part of the blue look purple which seems a bit confusing, so I wanted to clear it up.

            Have you used the lights when you measure them, or is it like a test then you send them back?

              Look at the wavelength like I did. That's how I knew it was UV.
