So I made the mistake of having 2 out of the 3 400w metal halides reflectors being double ended. I bought the reflectors with bulbs and they weren't labeled. My only choices for double ended bulbs are coralvue and hamilton. My center bulb is a single ended radium blue. I'm guessing 14k. Which double ended bulb is a better bulb?
 
I don't understand why you feel that you're limited to bulbs from coralvue and hamilton?
 
The best double ended bulbs I have used are the Phoenix 14k, white with a nice blue hue. just behind an over driven Radium 20K
 
Everywhere I've looked only sells those 2 brands for 400w double ended bulbs. Any suggestions where to get other brands. I'd love a xm or radium.
