Insane Blue with Reeflux 12K????

[IMPERATORFAN]

Thanks for that post panic. I was considering 12/10/12 but that photo has me thinking differently.

That 10k doesn't look blue at all does it. I've heard reports of white with a hint of blue but only see pink pics.

Anyone use these on an electronic ballast? According to Sanjay PPFD is better than on the magnetic, but the CCT is much lower looking at the 250w. Wondering how much different they look on an electronic compared to a magnetic or HQI.

Bulbs need time to burn in give a pic after a few days

I switched them all around to compare color and couldn't tell a difference other than the PFO wouldn't fire a new 12k. It fired a new 10k. The light in the middle is the one on a PFO, the ends are CV. All are 400se.

[edit] - I just read the above post - I ran this combo for a couple of months and it never really changed color, just barely less intense. I run the 10k on a PFO on a prop tank by itself and it looks white/blue. It's just pink next to the 12k.

Here is the day I set up my 180 with 12k Reeflux on the ends and a 10k Reeflux in the middle. Major color difference:
