150 DE Lighting options (10, 20, 14.5, 13??)

My 150de (tar ballast nothing special) will fire 175 de bulbs; if you look in my frag sale post i've got a picture up with a cheap (think it cost me 5.83$ shipped) 175w 14k...

HMMM - well now, that is interesting. I wouldn't be risking damage to my ballst, would I?

Which place did you order that one from? wouldn't mind looking back there and grabbing one to check it out

Danke!

No idea on the ballast - mines been running for a fairly long time no problems.

Don't ask difficult questions lights64 was the seller - not seeing any true auctions anymore though...

Thought I'd revive this with a few qs - PAR, PAR, PAR. I'm really interested in hearing what brands produce equal PAR in higher K temps.

From what I've seen, there are some brands (Hamilton) whose PAR drops as the K temp goes up - but XM bulbs don't?

What are the thoughts on this one?

As a rule, PAR goes down as colour temp goes up from 6500K
