Sometimes my father can go overboard a bit. Yesterday I asked him if we have any energy saving lamps colour 840 (cool white with a reasonable colour balance) in stock. I'm trying to watercolour but the lamps above my desk are warm white which makes it harder to mix colours. He immediately started looking for a fluorescent light fixture that I could hang over my desk because 840 isn't any good I should use 940 or 950 (first number is the colour quality and the last two the first digits of the colour temperature). Sigh. I just want a simple energy saving lamp with a normal fitting I can put in my desklamp. I don't need quality nine, eight is more than enough for me to mix my colours. After searching I found none in stock so I ordered one for myself.
(yes, I know my father means well but sometimes he goes overboard for simple things)
