250 Watt ReefLux™ Metal Halide Bulb
|
|
- ReefLux™ is the first true 10000K full spectrum metal halide bulb to be offered to the aquarium market.
- Choose 10K, 12K, or 20K metal halide bulbs.
- Other manufacturers claim to offer a 10000K lamp but that is just a marketing number of their best attempt to offer a full spectrum 10000K lamp.
- This is why they have a yellow or orange appearance and need to have some kind of fluorescent actinics to balance it out. Generally the more yellow or orange a bulb the more PAR the bulb will produce.
- ReefLux™ offers you the highest PAR rating without having to flood your aquarium with high powered fluorescent blue bulbs.
- The ReefLux™ 12000K has the performance of the 10000K but with a touch of blue added.
- We have also added the 20000K bulb to the Reeflux™ line.
- We recommend that Reeflux bulbs should be run with electronic metal halide ballasts or pulse start magnetic ballasts.
- Probe start magnetic ballasts will not fire Reeflux lamps properly, which could lead to difficulties with the bulbs.
- The Reeflux lamps are pulse start. Probe start ballasts may ignite the lamp, however the drawbacks are shorter life, color variation between lamps, a shift in color over time, and low efficiency.
- Our Reeflux lamps require an ignitor to fire throughout its life cycle.
