I'd buy the 6500K Sylvania lamp if it's a sign light you're using it in.....

Ehh. Not really. Purely white light makes things look better. If the sign was orange you wouldn't put a hps lamp in there i hope.

The 6500K has the highest color rendering, but it's really all in what you prefer. I like cool white lamps best.

Like I said D looks better with some colours and CW with others.

It depends on the company, some call it daylight, some sunshine, some call it natural sunshine.
