Any word on the bulbs yet ?

Hi,

Sorry, we thought they had shipped them, but it was 15k shipment, not the 10k, they are saying they'll ship the 10k's this coming week, so probably 7 days before we have them. Sorry it's taking so long.

I was wondering if these bulbs work on any metal halide ballast. I currently have the standard pfo ballast that I'm running sunburst 12k bulbs on.

Is this because they are new ? or is this going to be an ongoing problem getting them ?

Hi Victor90, these bulbs will run on any standard metal halide ballast, some bulbs have some burn in issues, where they do not light right away but it's temporarly, once it fires and stay lit for a few hours it runs fine.

Joefish - on the bulbs coming in problem. I think it's just because they are a new company and the demand was probably 10 times what they expected, so he is importing/making them fast as possible.

I did get good news this morning, the bulbs are shipped out and got tracking number, so we'll have them in about 4 bus. days.

thanks
