How do these brands hold up against Coralife bulbs?

All made in China right? Coral Life has 420nm true actinic and Current has 460nm blue. SPS has both. I would not doubt if SPS made Current and Coral Life lamps? (I don't know this for sure)

Very misleading but I checked my coralife bulb and its made in china. Good input. So a lower NM means better quality actinic eh? I read on another thread that there is 400nm bulbs. Are these available in PC bulbs?

The guy that owns Blue Life/SPS was at the Lonstar Expo here in SA last week. He said all his bulbs are sent to China and put together there and then sent back to the U.S. Still, they have good quality bulbs at reasonable prices.

Haven't seen the PC in the 400nm, only the standard 420/460nm. Not too sure if it matter's much on the 03 types, since you'll find success stories within most color ranges.

Good to know, I will give them a try. They don't sound any different from coralife except in price.
