I just got an XM 20K and it is marked XM250D. someone with an XM 20,000 K please look at their bulb and see if it is marked the same. I think they put the wrong bulb in the package, this thing is pretty darn yellow.

thanks

It happened to me once ... the "D" is a whiter bulb. It is probably mis labled. I just looked at my 20k and my 10kD both are 250W XM's

I have some new bulbs at the house that I'm selling, so they've never been fired. I'll check them when I get home.

This bulb was actually part of a group order, I think josh is going to call them today and get another bulb sent out.

The 20000k's I have in stock say xm250/b. They are also labeled very clearly on the box.

I checked some of the 10000k's I have - they do say xm250/d. My guess is you have a 10000k bulb. Those are nice - you know they're reporting they actually deliver more PAR than an iwasaki? Anyway, have you run the bulb any longer than to just try it out? If not, I might be able to swap you out. Otherwise I'm sure Hellolights will swap you out.....

why dont you just fire them up? should be pretty easy to tell exactly what they are.

When I received the mis labeled one, I used it for a week or so and HL still took it back.

I ran it for 15 minutes. your call, please let me know.
I'm guessing your 20K's havent been fired, correct?
Thanks,
