Tesseract - sorry bout that, I can definitely see how the first line wasn't needed (although it wasn't meant in the way it seems you interpreted it) - was just trying to answer the OP's original question (or what I understood it to be) of "are the generic bulbs comparable to the brand name bulbs"; regardless, my apologies - no offense was intended.
Sky High - thanks for that - I'm gonna keep on looking, but at this point I'm thinking a 600MH that can be hung vertically is akin to a pink unicorn - if I find one, I'll post a link to it in this thread.
EDIT: BTW Tesseract, I've used "cheapo" bulbs for forever and have had zero issues (I've splashed them with water, hot started them hundreds of times, and done just about everything possible to fuck them up and never had one burst/break on me) - it seems as though you agree that the bulbs are identical save that you think that your more expensive bulbs are somehow more "rugged", so I'm saying that my anecdotal evidence does not support your hypothesis.
