Which is most of the reason I went with M4. They have cool white (bluish), warm white (yellowish) and natural (no real color to distinguish). I went with the natural and have been quite happy. Many sellers of LED's only offer warm or cool, and natural seems to be not as common, and harder to locate.
For the ceiling lights I used the plate lights offered by M4 as they are two layers, an aluminum plate with the LED and is spaced off of the driver circuit board under it so they run cooler. Yes, LEDs do generate heat, just not like filament bulbs.
Have done this in both the View I had, and the travel trailer I have now.
