MH bulb comparison pics

[Son Of Skyline]

If the colour in the pic is accurate, then something's gotta be wrong with the bulb! That's very yellow even for 6500k standards. I'd give it the benefit of the doubt and let it burn in for 100 hours. Hopefully there'll be a dramatic colour shift. I know others have used the 10k bulbs from Venki and are happy with it, but I'm not sure if they're using the 175w.

Man...i still can't believe a 10k bulb can burn like that!
