10K Reeflux DE ?

NewSchool04 · 07/13/2006, 03:38 PM

I have a 14K Phoenix bulb now that is a little dull and blue for my taste. I'm thinking about the 10K Reeflux DE and wondering what people think of this bulb. I don't have actinic supplements and I'm looking for a crisp white with slight blueish tint.

Will this work or do you have any other suggestions?

Well I'm using the SE version ( 250w ) right now.

Based on looks, I'd say this bulb is comparable to the Aqualine Bulbs ( crisp white...but I see little, if any, blue tint )

Since you're not using actinics, I think you'd be happier if you stayed with the 14k.

Unless of coarse there is a major differance between SE and DE

I hope I helped you.
