    I am pretty sure amber is not along the lines of the white, green, blue.

    The reason blues/green/white are grouped together is the type of diode they use. Reds/Amber use a different type. You can see that in the forward voltages.

    A Red Lux III is actually a 5W LED and the Red K2 is a 3W if you do the math.

    In the case of the Reds/Amber Lux III (Not going to say 3W there for above reason :P ) is better than a K2 because the K2 Red maxes at 700mA. The Lux III maxes at 1540mA and will obviously be brighter to the eye.
