oops- the one RB on the lower right corner shoulld be 6.5 (yellow)= Typo

Depending on how high, and which optics u choose to go with I would recommend not setting it up this way. Even with my 90 leds spread very far apart i can see the 4500 and the 10000k leds when the optics are on. They stand out pretty bad. I had to take the optics off so they would blend better. IMO mixing the leds is alot safer. With the DIY part of leds, there are so many different factors that change each kit, That setup might work out great for u but i would be worried that it wont blend and u will end up seeing the diff colors :/ good luck
