Electric Lime vs Outrageous Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Electric Lime belongs to the yellow family and Outrageous Green to the green-yellow family. Electric Lime (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than Outrageous Green (LRV 40), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
