New lighting - new technology????

[stephane]

Maybe you need compare aple whith aple

They have only 6000 lumen for 85 watt
Iwasaki have 18200 lumen for a 250 watt MH bulb 6500k
Iwasaki have 5000 lumen for a 70 watt MH bulb 6500k

so you need tree to make same lumen intensity
at 95$ each 285$ and consume 255 watt+ 3 socket

Iwasaki are 90$ an consume 250 watt + one socket

not a great deal IMO and Im pretty shure they will never have a better shelf life and color shift than the good Iwasaki

just my 2 cent[/QB][/quote]
