Curious to see how it looks. Looking for SE 250W.

Oh FWIW. I have about 4 other types if anyone is ever looking to try a bulb out. Here is what I have.

250W 10K Reeflux
250W 20K Radium
250W 14K Hamilton
250W 20 K XM

Yep. I will bring it to the meeting.

Hmmm just thought of an interesting thing for the meeting. What do various lights look like in real life the 250W SE version? I have an old magnetic ballast and an icecap ballast as well as a pendant I could bring.

well it's at least a year, so no it's no it's not accurate compared to a new bulb

Jeez am I the only dork that changes his bulbs out every 7 months or so? I'll give it a shot anyway. Just want to make sure it isn't too blue for my taste.

You know. THis could turn into an awesome thing. A bunch of different lights (doesn't all need to be MH) shot as a big comparison series. All we need is a small tank where we can put a couple DBTC frags in and a camera+tripod!!

Hmm 8th months old might get me a better representation. Dudley if you can bring it to the meeting would be great.
