Iwasaki 150 watt 20000K MH Lamps Available!!!!

[robe]

Hi Everybody,

You can now get Iwasaki 20000K bulbs 150 watts double ended at only $100 at Eye Lighting (S) Pte Ltd, the distributor of Iwasaki lamps! Hurry as they only brought in 24 pieces for trial. Look for Bernard.

The 20000K bulbs are both available as double ended HQI model Rx7s or in screw base E27.

At long last cheaper MH lamps for reefers!!!! Now lets see Ushio and AB bring down their prices. Its been a long time since they have been exploiting us reefers...

Bernard said that if the demand is there they will bring in more bulbs... eventually prices for MH lamps will drop to only $100.... we can also put more lights and change it every 10-12 months

That's great news for us reefers!

Not great news for LFS!!

It's double-ended? Is it HQI?

I didn't realize that they come in 20,000k.

How about 10k? A lot of people refer the white with bluish tint compared to the blue look of 20k.

What kind of ballast comes with it?

Yup, it's HQI as well as screw base. Taske a look at this US LFS bulb comparison with the Iwasaki bulb.

They used NaH or MH ballast but ignitor voltage is lower I think not 4.2KV but not confirmed yet. I atill have to see the technical specs.

IF only they can bring it down some more. I have made enquiries in germany for 10KK, 20KK bulbs and they can sell to me in bulk at only 39 euros each only but minimum order amount is 2000 Euros.
