175MH Hamilton 10k???

Anyone have information on this bulb? Marine Depot just starting carrying them this year. I have done a bunch of searches on RC and have come up empty handed.

Any information would be great!

Hi,

I have ran Hamilton 10,000K in the past and they work great. Nice crsip white light. I am currently runnimg XM 15,000k bulbs and they are a littlle too blue for me. I think I am going to try the XM 10,000K next time.

I have read that the XM run a bot yellow depending on the ballast, so I'm staying away from them.

Marine Depot said that they have had better success and no complaints with the Hamiltons.
