it really depends on the specific bulb and quality. Output can vary tremendously. But I assure you, 8000k will be noticeably dimmer, the best compromise is 6000k. Generally, with highquality 6k bulbs the loss should not be very significant- or negligible, and the color change, also makes it appear "brighter".

Long story short, if you want bright, dont go 8k/
