I've run a 125w 6500k Mini Lotus for a year now. It's a great cfl bulb. Good design, light dispersion, cooler than most other larger cfls. Great product from my experience.

Now the guy not only has Baby Lotus's, he's also got these kick ass dual spectrum (2100k/6500k) bulbs.

Bulbs made in, 42w baby lotus, 125w mini lotus, 200 lotus (15,000 lumens), 250w longer bulb. All come in both 2100k, 6500k and Dual Spectrum.

While the initial investment might seem like a lot (about $40 for the 125w cfl), 10,000 lumens from one CFL bulb drawing only 125w is pretty good.

If your interested by this kind of thing, have a look through his store on ebay. He has a lot CFLs.

What caught my eye recently are the Baby Lotus, 42w cfls, have the same great design and light dispersion, and are compactly efficiently small! $30 bucks shipped for a three pack right now.

i have ordered from this site before but i hate shipping charges, but it may show some lights that you mite find local to you. from experience i don't like a 5000k as i watched my plants cling to the 2700k's, i thought about adding the 6000k to 6500k but instead went with 400w mh and 2700k-3000k led, with 2700k cfl's for later in flower. just looking through the 40-42 and the 55-68 you can get a good mix of spectrum. good luck.
