If the bulb is 100% white ... where is your 50% reference and your 20% reference?

IT takes more than a bulb to get it right. You also need kodak gray cards.

Thanks for the help.

I have some gray cards in a photography book.Not sure if that is the same?

What kind of light should be shining "on the gray cards" when adjusting tv?
