Philips had the good open-fixture rated 400W and 250W CMH that run on traditional HPS ballasts . . . but they discontinued production.

This guy is a flake but you will eventually get your bulbs:

The seattle guy is a little flakey in a different way, "rebranding" stuff. I remember visiting his shop back in the '80s, I think.
