35w Philips MasterColour Evolution

1 x Philips Ultra high efficacy CDM-T Evolution lamp in 35w 930 flavour.
The latest generation of CDM-T lamps from Philips (now obsolete) which offer better efficiency and lumen maintenance over the Elite series of lamps.
What is interesting is that these lamps feature an unsaturated vapour concept with very short end-seal plugs.
This means that all of the halide dose is evaporated during operation and the removal of all the problems associated with having a salt pool in the cooler parts of the lamp.
Note the tiny laser-sealed ceramic tip on the side of the arc tube. This is where the correct halide dose is added.
Due to the cost of manufacture, these were discontinued in 2017.

4400lm (standard 35w CDM-T is 3300lm!)
3000k
20,000h (standard lamp is 12,000h)

Other loves are computers, office equipment, A/Cs

What is the run-up and hot restrike time of this lamp?

I"m don't speak English well, and rely on online translating to write in this site.
Please forgive me if my choice of my words looks like offensive, while that isn't my intention.

I only working with the European date format (dd.mm.yyyy).

I lives in Israel, which is a 230-240V, 50hz country.

Nice lamp!

Good quality things are awesome. Bad quality things are not.

Run-up is very fast, but the hot restrike time is fairly similar to standard lamps, although in theory it should be a little faster due to the reduced thermal mass of the arc tube. Its really a pity these were discontinued, it was the best low wattage metal halide technology ever made.

Multicolor NE-2s

I still haven't seen an LED lamp that produces light with as good quality as Philips CMH lamps.

Any machine is a smoke machine if you operate it wrong enough.
