I've got 2 175w SE bulbs. One is a 20K Reeflux and the other is a Blue Line 14K Chinese. Both of these were used 2 months. I didn't like the "blue look".

I've also got:
1 Ushio 10K 175w
1 unknown 10K 175w
2 20K Radium 400w
All these have been used for a year. All are SE Mogel base.

Free if you want them. Come get 'em.

H@rry did you ever get a par meter or do you still just change them on a schedule?

No, I never got a par meter. I just change them once a year. I was pretty disappointed with the Radium 20Ks. I replaced them with Reeflux 10Ks and could see the difference in color after a week. I have played around with 6.5K, 10K, 13K (or 14K), and 20K over the years but I keep coming back to 10K. I plan to just stick with them.

Harry,
If you can bring them to the meeting I'd take the two newer 175w bulbs and at least one of the 20k 400w radiums. I just put a new 400w radium in last month, but I could use a back up bulb. My 175w Iwasaki is about a year old; I've heard they can be good for nearly two years, but it'd be nice to not have to buy a bulb when it comes time to change it out.
thanks,
Mariner
