Would the 150 HQI have as much par as the 175,s? I doubt as much as the Iwasaki but I,m still looking for 150 comparison charts.

I have seen the Coralife 10K in action and it looks brighter than my old 250w 14K/regular ballast did.

Well, here are Sanjay's 150 HQI results (shielded):

Also according to Sanjay, the Iwasaki 175W 15K bulb runs 87 and 71 PPFD on electronic and magnetic ballasts, respectively.

Thanks. I've never seen those 150 ones before. The 87 for the Iwasaki on electronics,s is the number I was refering to, in comparison to 250,s. Only a couple of the 250,s are better.
