My understanding is that hellolights has them made for them by an asian lighting manufacturer. Certainly hellolights is the distributer. I think that in fact XM and hellolights while on paper probably separate entities in reality are not.

Many wholesalers (like pacificaquafarms etc...) sell the bulbs (I imagine bayview, marinedepots wholesale arm does as does customaquatic).

I heard that they are actually imported from Columbia on small single engine planes and distributed through the many night club channels from Florida to New York and CA.

It used to be done like that, until customs caught on.

Now theyre transported over the border in a much more uncomfortable way, involving balloons.
