![]() Just thought I'd update this.
Switched 2 T5's in an RSM250 over from stock T5 bulbs. I am unimpressed. I don't see the difference from T5 to these. I was expecting/hoping for some better coloration and pop. Really, they look almost identical to T5's and I think maybe not quite as nice as some higher end T5's like ATI. My experience MAY be better if I had switched all bulbs over, but after seeing the two, I'm not going to try it and will be sticking with ATI. |

![]() I've been looking into this a bit and it seems like there are 2 different opinions on these lights.
Some love them and some seem to be disappointed with the coloration. I have noted that in a lot of the reviews I've read that are similar to mine, only 1 or 2 bulbs were switched out. Whereas on a lot of the reviews that are very positive, it seems like all or most bulbs have been switched out... I had really high hopes for this product, so I think I am going to pick up 2 more (for a total of 4 out of 6 bulbs) and revisit this thread. The LED's come on a few seconds before the T5's do, and in that flash, things do look really nice, so I think there is some merit to this idea. |

![]() I received a blue daylight in a trade and bought a blue pop from JL...
I want to add 2 more blue pop and see how things look. If your Kessil is white-ish, the Blue Pops are probably the way to go. I'm gonna pick a couple up this weekend, if I don't like them, I will be happy to sell them to you for a discount. |

![]() ![]() Edit: I haven't had time to read all this yet...judging from the messages I've been receiving maybe the vacations are already earned. To be continued... Last edited by Myka; 05-13-2016 at 01:15 AM. |
