Electric Blue vs Impromptu
Where Electric Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Impromptu is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Electric Blue (LRV 28) reflects noticeably more light than Impromptu (LRV 23), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Electric Blue runs blue while Impromptu is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
