Yet another "Blue" 250 DE bulb question...

Hey guys currently I have a pheonix 14k over my solana running off the newer icecap. Im thinking of ordering one of the evc 20ks which is supposed to be the same as the helios 20ks. Im just looking for better color. Par isnt my biggest concern. Anybody have any experience with either one of those bulbs or possibly a comparison picture between the 2?

Ive also read the xm 20k is a pretty blue bulb. Any input friends? I know this question is asked over and over but I couldnt really find anything on here about the evc

Yes, that is correct, the same inner element as the helios. Many people here on RC use EVC lamps and have fantastic results.

Hope this helps,
