For those of you that got the long awaited URI T5's, what do you think? I got a pair for my Maristar and put one in the front. It's not as bright but IMO the corals seem to pop a little more. Your opinions?
I think they are brighter than any other T5 actinic. They are not quite the same as the VHO on a universal ballast, but pretty close. I have seen them overdriven (to 80-85 watts) and they are VERY close to a 110w vho.
I also think they are as good as the regular uri s.a. I an running them on the standard triad ballast but once I get the icecap660 back I will be using that instead. I think its a huge difference from the standard crapy attinic.
After about a week of running my SA bulbs, I am pleased with them. Much better than everything else out there. I still use them in conjunction with blueplus bulbs, though.
