Megachrome 12.5k SE lamps??

Anybody use these? I'm looking to run them on a PFO HQI ballast.

Comments please.

I run Megachrome coral 400 SE on an IC electronic. Last bulb was a XM 20k. I love the megachrome. Check out the specral analysis on Sanjay's site. I get almost pure white and colors glow like actinic. Expensive bulb, though - I paid like $110. I'm sold on them. Not sure how they'll look on HQI, probably better. The 12.5k is the "marine" bulb, I believe.

Thanks! You are referring to Single End lamps too correct?
