Aqua UV Bulb replacements - Found the jack pot for ordering replacement bulbs.

When I first needed a replacement Bulb for my 200 watt Aqua Ultraviolet I purchased through them directly. It was $825.00 with tax and freight
Then I found Atlantic Ultraviolet, shipped to my door with tax and all $425.00. Huge savings, been buying from them for years.
Then comes today, had my bulb in my cart at AU, then decided to google the part # one more time since I hadn't check in about a year for cheaper sources.
CureUV.com pops up for $299.00 no tax no freight. Plus a huge bonus, schedule a yearly shipment and another $31.00 discount.

BULB LANDING AT MY DOOR FOR $269.00 not $825.00 !!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited about this find Here is the Website

It is likely a ball of zirconium alloy, used to absorb contaminant gasses and help maintain a vacuum.

Splatter, balls or coating stuck to the glass or electrode on old lamps is mercury deposits that precipitated or reacted out of vapor.
 
Life saver, i was bummed about spending $100 for new 25w bulb.
$40 shipped!
 
Any thoughts on the quality of these vs Aqua UV brand?
