Does anyone in town stock Phoenix 150w HQI 14k bulbs?

If not, I found this:

Phoenix 150w 14k Bulb

Never had to buy a MH bulb yet, is this price decent?

Go to bulbs plus and tell the girl what you want I got a 175usheo from them and I like it and the price was not to bad it was the same as if I was to order it in. If you want a 150w 14k tell them that you want a 150w 20k the Kelvin is net the same as if you go with XM or some thing The Usheo's don't have a Kelvin rating for there bulbs I will be going to bulbs+ in the morning I wii see what they have for you.

Yeah internet ordering bulbs is probably the way to go, I see bulbs at LFS sometimes but You'd have to call them all to see if they have that particular one.

Blubs + is down off of Platte, on the left as you head west, going into downtown.

I bought mine from that ebay site, he is a fellow RC member and its better than any internet deal I found compared to $55 + shipping. He will only sell till his supply is out

I agree 14K all the way, it has a bluer tint, it may whiten a bit but it gives good color and growth and ive heard nothing but good things from Phoneix 14K
