This review is from: Sylvania 64457 - M250/U 250 watt Metal Halide Light Bulb (Electronics)
Be very careful to document this bulbs life. The manufacture and suppliers have honored the warranty for me.
Ive had nothing but problems with this bulb, early failure some in a matter of a week or less.
Ive already sent back a 6-pak and now working on 6 more as they fail. Warranty is good but lots of extra work taking them out of my 100+ poles makes me furious.
If your the manufacture reading this please quit using recycled glass to seal the base......it cracks leaving the arc tube to the breeze and early failure!
build the bulb in the USA and you wouldn't have the problems!
For me Ive moved on to Phillips 250watt and never coming back!
