bump for the Saturday morning surfers...

Hamilton has sent me lamps in the past, and they are very cooperative. That is why I sent them an email direclty letting them know that there was interest among the hobby to see the data on thier lamps.

If not, you already have an offer here from someone to send me the lamp.

:thumbsup:


really?

Yeah, Im pretty sure on this one. Its just a Ushio 10,000K. I know gopack's reefstar pendants direct from hamilton came with Ushio 10,000K's. I think their only true hamilton make is the 14,000K. Thats why you dont really see Hamilton 10,000Ks sold anywhere... its just a Ushio.

Note arguing, but on their site they have both a "hamilton" 10,000K and the Ushio 10,000K. Is the site wrong?

The hamilton one is first listed, and the Ushio is just more then half way down the page.

Well, I'm running two 250w Hammy 10k's right now and both bulbs are stamped
HAMILTON TECH MH 250WATT 10,000k

There's a price difference between these and the Ushio's, too.

I originally started this thread because the test results of the Hamilton 250w 10k SE lamp is unpublished on Sanjay's website, but I believe all of these Hamilton lamps still need independent analysis.
