Here's the deal with the reeflux 12000k.... It's all about the ballast....

I'm running a SE 400W RF 1200k bulb on a standard magnetic ballast and it's super blue(think actinic)I haven't tested but I'm sure the par is dismal...

I'm also running a SE 250W RF 12000K bulb on a PFO HQI ballast and it looks great. I've also heard they look great on electronic ballasts...

INMO the only way to run these bulbs is to over drive them...

Just my 0.02....
