T6 Lighting

does anyone know anything about T6 lighting ? Good-Bad ? I hear that is runs cooler than T5 and puts out more light ?

I have also posted this in the lighting forum

seeing as no one (or very few i should say) use t6, and many many many people use t5 HO, i'd find it hard to believe that it puts out more light than t5's.

The Grim Reefer has played around with it. T6 is avalable in VHO, where T5 is HO only at this point (more watts, more output). There are a couple threads in the Lighting and Other Equipment forum
