Hello, I have several coloured MH lamps. Green and Blue lamps are very nice, orange ore pink are a bit washed out in my opinion. I have lamps by BLV (Ushio) Osram and some of those cheap that were once available on aliexpress. The last one are worthless, the colours are very fade, the life rather short-a waste of money. Save your earnings and by the more expensive quality lamps by manufacturers that have experience in this field and decent quality. Maybe some of the older ya-ming stuff in your case. If you can, buy BLV/Ushio ones they are some of the best. If you want however deep intensive colours i.e. for landscape lighting I would recommends good coloured LEDs. Best regards Alex

Best regards Alex Thank you for your reply, can you provide me with photos? But in China you can only buy Yaming's colored metal halide lamps.

Quote from: tolivac on March 29, 2022, 01:12:48 AM Its been several years ago-wanted to order some color MH lamps from Venture Lighting-the bulbs were VERY expensive-had to be custom made and their life was shorter than standard halide lamps.Don't know about how to get these at present.Figure they are being replaced by LEDS anyway. In China, customized MH has not disappeared, the price is more expensive, but the life expectancy is similar to normal MH

Blue 400w Green 400w Magenta 400w These are also available in 1000w versions but cost about twice as much. Nonetheless this is a lot cheaper than they used to be, but it's remaining old stock. Look at their "specialty/other" categories to find the 1000w versions; the colors have the same lamp suffixes (BDX=blue, GDX=green, MDX=magenta). They also have 250w tubular aquarium metal halides in 10,000K, 14,000K and 20,000K.
