Steve Tyree's chat the other night

[StirCrazy]

Steph, I am not talking about that test anymore.. the 150 has been tested against a 250 in identical fixtures..

Besides, if you re-read that statment you quoted by him in its entirity, you will find that he was talking about the comparasons between the 150 watt HQI agains the 250watt HQI, people were saying that the 150 was just as good as the 250 but they didn't realize that the new test on the 250 was done with a bare bulb.

it doesent matter though because the AB 150 is way to expensive for my blood (unless you have a good deal in the works :D ) but I think the 250 AB DE would be a better bulb.

I did recive a e-mail back from AB today and they only listed one place in Canada as a outlet for there bulbs.. to bad usaly that means they will be very expensive as there is not compatition.
