Anyone try the Ushio 10K? Looks like all J&L have listed on their site are the Coralife and Ushio 150W HQI

I started out with Ushio 10K SE's. They were ok.

But then I got XM 10K SE's, and they were sooo much whiter (and cheaper).

J&L has geisseman 13000k bulbs. Same PAR as 10000k's without the yellow tinge.
