Closest color to radium 20K SE in DE version

whats the closest bulb to radium 20K's but in a DE version?

Not sure how close to the Radium this is but if you're looking for more blue then the Phoenix 14k on M80 ballast I love the EVC 20k DE. A few places online selling them cheap. Worth a shot!

I'll have to check it out. I'm upgrading the ballasts to ICECAPS they have not arrived yet but how do the bulbs look on IceCap electronic ballasts?

Not sure on Ice caps I have them on a mag ballast that normally burns typically whiter than electronic and they still retain some nice blue. I imagine on an electronic ballast they would be a very blue 20k.
