I checked it out, good prices on some bulbs, except there was a catch. The 1000w Hortilux MH i bought has a burnt spot the size of a quarter on the glass and a little ball of mercury floating around in the bulb. Should have inspected them. Also had to settle for some ushio bulbs cause they don't have anything else in stock.

They are also known as mercury vapor lamps. The start up arc vaporizes the mercury to generate the light.
I actually prefer the Ushio bulbs for flower because they have some nice blue in the spectrum and, more importantly, Ushio doesn't fix prices like Eye Hortilux.
