I have a corallife turbo twist 36 watt uv light that I am going to be installing, with out bashing me for using it as its not a top of the line one. I see that there are different bulbs, they all look the same but vary in price.

If I get one thats labeled coral life, am I just paying for the name?

They Range from $15-$70 for the same looking bulb so I am confused
 
To my knowledge they are all the same. Some industry insiders have told me that many of the high-end units use the same lamps as well.
 
Turbo twist are ok, though they do tend to go through bulbs quickly.
