Question on HQI

[jmack]

what's the best 14k HQI 250 watt bulb I can buy?

 

[areze]

IMO pheonix.

a very blue 14k, and the most par of any 14k. best of every world.

 

[anemoneguy]

i use the mechachrome coal. not to much blue, and just enough white. also very good par.

 

[prugs]

Phoenix or Ushio. The Phoenix lamp is more blue.

I use phoenix, only bulb I used because a local reefer uses it and I liked the way it looked a lot.
