I use the Eye Hortilux HPS Superbulb in both Veg, and Flower, and have since the 90s. Its got Added Blue, so it works for both Veg, and Flower.
If I was buying new I would go with a Gavita, and probably will anyway. They can be Dimmed.
HORTILUX® SUPER HPS
HORTILUX Super HPS light has been the best grow lamp for the last 25 years. Traditional high pressure sodium lamps are best used for flowering and fruit production. Unlike traditional HPS lamps, HORTILUX HPS lamps are designed with enough violet, blue, and green spectrum to be used as a standalone light source throughout all phases of plant production making them a true multitasker for your HPS system.

I also use the Arcadia Desert Reptile T5 UVA/UVB Bulbs to add this spectrum, but is very dangerous, and Will blind you. I use it at 108w per every 4 x 4 at a height of 18 inches. In flowering I use them 2 hours After Lights On, and then turn them Off 2 hours before Lights Out.
On an 18 hour veg cycle they get 12 hours worth. 3 Hours after lights come on, and 3 hours before they go off. Basically 2/3s of the time UVA/UVB will be On. 1/3 Off.
Arcadia 54w Dragon Lamp
I also use Their Fixtures.
