I found a guy on RC that was selling some halides. I was in need so I sprung for 3 of these.
He had them made specifically for him on some business venture that went bad and is now stuck with them. How many I do not know but enough to get the thread removed from RC. haha
Anyways, the 3 I recieved came in good shape. There is no exact kalvin rating on these but I would place it between 15 and 20K.
They are up and running on my tank now. I like the color and the brightness seems right.
I paid $36 each plus priority mail from PA.
He is BIGGUN on ReefCentral.
I had a good experience with him and contact was good.
I just thought this would be a great opportunity for those who don't believe you should pay $85 - $100 for a bulb.
If any one orders through him please let us know how it went. I'll keep everyone posted on the life of the bulb. So far 3 days and going good

If you want to see for yourself, your welcome to stop by and take a look.
I think he said he has 175watt also.
