In Anacortes, I am using a Christie bulb in a Strong Super Lumex running at 90 amps. The bulb has 3500 hours on it, and the light on the screen is still beautiful! No ignition problems either. The bulb has never been rotated. My stack temperature is about 115 to 120 degrees.The best I could ever get out of other bulbs was about 2000 hours, and some never made it past the 500 hours without blowing up. I have to agree with Pat. For years, I used Osram. Today, it would be 3rd or 4th choice. I tried Perkins, they didn't go beyond 2000 hours. As for now, I'll stick with Christie until they go HS and force me to change brands.
