OK, I need to vent a bit.
Today, I was looking at metal halide lamps on eBay, which is a regular occurrence. Oftentimes, I am interested in 4200K lamps rather than 3000K ones. However, for some reason that I do not understand, major manufacturers often omit the colour temperature on the case and on the individual sleeve. If I find lamps I like, I find that I have to look up the model number online (often at 1000bulbs) to find the colour temperature. Why they do so, I will never understand. Furthermore, in large installations where they have lots of lamps in their stock room, I wonder how they know which colour is which when they relamp. Or maybe most users hire relamping companies that take care of that without the intervention of the customer. Whatever the reason, it is frustrating...
