250W HQI MH Lamp

[Dwiel]

I bought a 250W HQI MH Lamp for diylabs.org (now lumenlabs) 4 or 5 years ago. Its one with connectors on either end of the bulb. I remember them being pretty cheap back then $20 or $30. Is there a similarly cheap distributor still going these days? I dont see them at lumenlabs any more. I'm finding them at Aquarium stores for $70 or so.

thanks!

Try the Sylvania HSI-TD MetalArc lamp. It is exactly the same. Same company, different names. They are usually cheaper.

Here, don't know if they ship to the states though:
