OK bulb
| Comments |
These bulbs were on sale so I got a pair to try them. They are a bit of a wierd color. Not blue or white, they have a hint of purple/pink to them. I had the Pheonix bulbs before and these are as bright if not brighter. But the color is really not my favorite, I have them supplemented so they look fine, but defintely are not a stand alone metal halide bulb. I have read the 400w version compairs to the Radium, but sadly the 150w version does not. Not in color, and according to Sanjay's article it has nearly 40% less PAR than the 150w Radium.
