Why Yellow LEDs Look Green
Most white LEDs are actually a blue LED chip with a yellow phosphor coating — blue and yellow combine to produce white light. However, many "white" LEDs illuminate with a cool white color that has a hint of blue. To create yellow output, many manufacturers simply put a yellow lens over the outside of the bulb. The problem: whenever any hint of blue light passes through a yellow lens, the blue and yellow combine to produce a green-tinted color — not the true yellow you were looking for.
The Solution: True Yellow LEDs
The SLF Yellow fog light bulb avoids this problem entirely. Instead of relying on a colored lens over a white/blue LED chip, the SLF uses dual three-chip automotive-grade high-power yellow LEDs for a true yellow output — no lens needed. The result is a pure, warm yellow with zero green tint.
The SLF also delivers an optically focused street-legal beam pattern with minimal glare for oncoming drivers. It features a metal-core PCB for optimal heat transfer and durability. Installation is 100% plug-and-play. Backed by a 3-year warranty.
