Where did you guys got all those cool PC bulbs ?
I was at Home Depot and Canadian Tire this weekend and I couldn't find any of those. For 'Compact Fluorescent' none of them was specifying the temperature, just the watts.
The closest I got was a Philips PC 15w 'Daylight'. Equivalent to 55W but no word about the Kelvin.

The screw in mogul based bulb is available at Home Depot on Terminal. Comes in a blue and white package and is marked as daylight. Made by GE.

At my work yesterday (I work at revy) I discovered a new bulb we got in. It is the same ad dez was describing, grow light 20w with ballest in mogal base. But the cool part was that in came in it's own pendant reflector. I plugged it in and it was very bright. I'd say brighter than a 100w incandesent bulb and the color was fairly white. The price was $26 but i get employee discount. I figure these would make a great pendant fixture for a sump or refuge.
