I personally use a Hamilton Belize fixture. But I can say these bulbs work great with Hamilton and their electronic ballasts. I hope this is still the case in 2-3 weeks, once the bulbs burn in.

Usually I have found bulbs to look like crap then get better with burn in, nice to have a great look right out of the box for once.
