Default HQI bulbs

hehe ya..I think cheep has gone out the window, I just bought another 2 bags of argamax today.. (KRIS hurry and get that sand :D ) a little more expensive but I decided I am not going cheep on MH lighting.. I am going to get 10000K bulbs soooooo.. a 250 watt 10000K MH is ~200.00 at J&L's so 200.00 for a 150 watt HQI is a good deal IMO. I would like to find the 150 watt 10000K Aqualine Buschke double ended HQI as its output is higher than a 400watt Iwasaki and only ~1/3 the power consumption. ya I am going to e-mail J&L's and ask about them thanks for reminding me Darren [img]smile.gif[/img]
another reason for going with HQI's is the smaller bulb size.. with all the tubes I have in my lighting aray I only have to take out 1 and I can add two HQI's [img]smile.gif[/img] tha will let me eveove to 4, 96watt PC's (2 actinic and two 10000K) and the two HQI's

Jamie, whare did you get yours from and what kind did you get?
