Sources (lot’s of great ones!):
Lighting Research Center study comparing induction and metal halide sources to HPS:


US Department of Energy’s information on blue light sources in street lighting:


University of Pittsburgh’s environmental assessment of LEDs (in case you are worried about the extra e-waste compared to the mercury and sodium):


Some general info on spectral sensitivity of the human eye:


Basic info on light pollution (including relative impacts on sky glow) came from everyone’s favorite reliable source of knowledge:


Spec sheet for the Cree LED

IF YOU DON'T SEE YOUR NAME:
The description was too long to give all of you credit! Going forward, when this happens the first half of you will be featured here and the following half will be on the next video. This is a wonderful problem for *me* to have, but I hope you don't feel too left out. Thanks for your understanding!
