heya poo lol i see that we have had a few jokes in here about ***** lol i got a question for property first, hey peperty what are u going to do for a face when the baboon wants its *** back?lol anyway the best bulb to use and the brightest for a 150w is the phillips cdm range ive been in and out of bulb manufactures sites for weeks comparing bulbs and the cdm seems the best and smallest. The initial lumen output it 14000lm and half life output is about 9000-10000lm this bulb has to be run off of a electronic ballast however and colour temps are 3000 and 4200, the osram are not very bright compared to this bulb but this bulb only lasts 6000hrs and has a smaller arc

Yeah i was happy to figure out that it didnt need an expensive ballast, but then i realized it should be able to use the ballast that is currently inside my commercial projector!!! It has a 150w metal halide bulb, so would the ballast be a standard 150w metal halide ballast, and wouldnt it power this bulb!? god i hope so
 
Pooh, I am not sure about that one. If the bulb in your commercial projector was a metal halide and not a UHP,UHE,VIP
or otherwise it should probably work. I think the other type of lamps I listed are mercury arc or something to that effect.
 
well it doesnt matter now, i just looked at the specs of my projector again and found it has 250w instead of 150w. Damnit!!! but yeah i guess im gonna have to buy a ballast after all, now i dont know if i should buy an electronic or a magnetic.
