Radiums on E-ballasts

fishman1218 · 06/12/2010, 03:19 PM

I was thinking about getting a pair of 250w radiums. I read on several vendor sites that they produce a "bluer" light when run with an e ballast and that the light is blue enough that a lot of people don't run actinics with them. Can anyone running these lights with an e ballast chime in and let me know what your opinions are on the color.

Thanks
