    The new Ushio Aqualite G12 150w metal halide lamp had nanos in mind with the ability to align the lamp axially to the reflector. The G12 series is designed for parabolic and elipsoidal reflector designs. The Ushio Aqualite G12 boasts a color temp of 14k and 70 CRI and will be available this September!

    Any pricing information available yet? I will be lighting my new nano soon, and these might just do the trick nicely...

    So wait a hot minute? These bulbs insert into their brand of T5 fixture? What about other brands?

    oh I guess I didn't understand the post.. I thought it was just the bulb, not familiar with this brand of fixture.
