the was a man recently who said he has never used the word 'bulb' in a post (apart from a quote or prefixed by the word 'light'

read this and weep chrissy boy... you were talking about a halogen maybe.....but by your own admission it should have been a halogen light bulb !!

QUOTE..........Are these halide lamps or tubes? I'll presume halide. Also, what wattage and size tank.

14K should not be anything like yellow, if it is then the bulb is well past it's sell by date or of poor qaulity.

You shouldn't need anything 'bluer' than a decent 14K lamp to look good. I would probably ditch or swap the T8 atinic for a T5, much better.

Oddly, I too received a new Reeflux lamp this morning, and whilst it's not marked as 250W as in your case, it looks quite different to the one I got a few weeks ago.

The packaging is just plain white with a Reeflux sticker stuck over another sticker that reads '400W/10000K' and looking at the bulb, the internals look quite different to the one I already have!

Not sure whether I should query it or not.
