What kind of noise? Some have a wire coil that will make a noise if shaken... I have a few that have small peices of glass in them... Probably happened during shipping.. they still work though.... You should probably try that thing out soon so you can send it back if there is a problem....
You think my local hydro store would check it for me?
but theres no broken pieces inside.....i think it is the wire coil...idk

i just got 3 of them in the mail and 2 of them rattled and the other didnt.
i bought lumatek's because i had 11/12 hortilux's burn out in about 10 months. some went in 2 months some went longer but nonetheless those bulbs suck ass in lumatek ballasts

nothing to worry about, that little rattle sounds is just a piece of metal or spring in the inside of the bulb, unless its really loud then something is broken
