All the color changing lamps I have seen have issues with white. There is always a thin line of color at the edges of the beam spread.
Well most of the color changing fixtures only have a R, G and B led. To make white, each led is on full blast. In DMX world, it would be 255,255,255.
The white is more of a bluish white.
Most of the lighting in my home are either incandescent or halogen based can lighting. I also have some RGB led strips all around my rooms behind the cove molding, under cabinets, etc. It makes for a really great effect and also works awesome as night lights during the wee hours.
I've been able to closely match my can lighting with the RGB strips, so it doesn't look weird or have different temperature lighting.
Working well so far.
As for my outdoor lighting, I've been using these fixtures, which have held up pretty damn well in the New England weather. They aren't super bright but give enough light output for walkways, lined driveways, some uplighting (depending on size required).
