The picture below is of 2 Archon flashlights. The one on the left is meant for video (very wide beam), the one on the right has a spot beam. They both are suppose to be 6500k-7000k. I feel the flashlight on the right is much brighter due to its cooler, whiter color. The difference seems so pronounced, I think the flashlight on the left is defective. Thoughts?

Also those are not the "same" flashlights even though they are the same brand.
 
Thanks for the responses. I have owned many underwater flashlights. Some were focus lights, some with spot beams, many different brands. I just don't recall ever having one with such a yellow tint.
 
Higher color temperatures can look blue, harsh and scientific vs. a warmer color which can make subjects and scenery look better.
