So you agree that the AB250 DE as more par than the AB150 DE Right ?
OK Im about to make you self change you mind on that 150 (I hope) If you look at 2002 the anual marine and fish 2002 SANJAY have quote the Iwasaki 250 watt 130 PAR
and the AB250 DE 110 PAR
and those measure are made in equal condition none have reflector
So a 150 DE is very far from bite a 250 iwasaki
I hope this will close the loop on the 150 DE mith
No flame here stir I only do this to stop people
trowing there money out for a miracle new gadjet ;) HQI DE very far from being that miracle bulb some clame. From all the 10k I
tink the only one who is an improve over an
iwasaki for the color are the AB BUT the price are simply ridiculous IMO
dont forget that the Iwasaki are in fact 7200k
+ both need actinic supplement and most 10k look prety similar when suplement whith actinic + those DE need UV shield and expensive projector
so Iwasaki 150 and 250 are still IMO two of the best bulb on the market for your $ The realy improvement look will not come from a 10k but from a 20K radium all people who have switch to them only dream about them and all said they never go back + now that It's possible to have those 20k and ballast for the price of an iwasaki
and skip the VHO + have the best color ever and realy good grow what do you want to ask more?
