I thought the higher the # the brighter it gets too.
I like the dark blue/purple ones better. They look awesome. Both are cool. The darter colored ones are more like the 6th gens.

higher the color, the more purple it gets and the less VISIBLE light (lumens) that you get. Thats why all manufactureres stick with 4100K bulbs. You can see the most with those.

It doesn't look to me like there is any shortage of light on the 8000 one. I mean, yeah, the other one looks like the sun....but the bluish one is right behind it. ha ha
