Ushio are nice bulbs but if you looking for a 20k bulb you cannot beat a radium. Megachromes are nice too...

I had the megachromes 14500 and really liked them. I remember when I first changed them it was like "WOW"

I used to run 250watt 15K Ushios and I liked them. When I switched to Phoenix 15K though I noticed that the Ushios were whiter than the Phoenix counterpart, even with fresh Ushios. In other words, compared to Phoenix bulbs, the same Ushio bulb (in my past experience) was whiter.
