Radium metal halide bulbs will not be produced anymore!

Can't wait to see your results I'll be making the same exact switch in the coming months. I heard there Hamilton bulbs with a different name which would be perfect for me. It might have been @jackson6745 who through one on an electric ballast? I'm not sure exactly what I hate about these ushios but somethings just not right?

I changed the bulbs out and they sure do look more 20k to me than 14k. More blue look for sure compared to ushio or Hamilton 14k.

Jagshemash!

I make T5 light for $20 US&A bucks with life expectancy of about 10 years, it eats little electricity, which might be important for a mainly rural country, such as US&A where energy is scarce.
Great money savings!

Random DIY - 40W LED light for £15

As promised - I bought a £16 light from Toolstation: https://www.toolstation.com/v-tac-ip20-led-super-slim-batten-with-samsung-chip/p14356 The batten is absolutely weightless (approx. 200g).. I bought a 1.2m batten - when end caps are removed it's about 108cm long.
