I've been kind of reading this thread and well one can argue astetics for ever. So really a waste of time. 
 
Of coarse  housing, bulb and ballast design play a role in the amount and intensity of light reaching the desired area. What we as consumers need are numbers. Seeing we have a rep in the thread why don't we get those and while that is happening let the hobbiest debate opinions.
