14k hqi bulbs

[Xavier613]

Alright. My buddy and I are having an argument. He is saying that there is no such thing as a 14k color temp and that manufacturers are just saying it for money. I told him hes full of it and that i have 2 150w 14k phoenix bulbs that i can show him right now.

He says its only 10k and 20k soo anyone wanna help settle this?

Well, for one...There is a HUGE difference in color between a 14k and a 20k! I think 20k bulbs almost have a turquoise sort of look to them..

tell him to visit Sanjay's sight, he's independent from all manufactures and has the spectral grafts for many differant bulbs 6500K, 10, 12, 14,15 & 20K

I have seen the graphs and I have both 14k and 20ks on my system and there is a diffrence. Even go look at aftermarket HID car headlight charts there is a huge difference in 10k, 14k and 20k
