Any good commercial t5 bulbs?

[talontsiawd]

I have a 30 in fixture with 27 in (I believe) t5 bulbs. I find that commercially available t5's are almost half the price but I can't find my bulb in the right spectrum (or anything other than the typical "soft white" if I can find the size at all locally).

I have a bit of trouble paying $20 per bulb when I know I don't have to. I want to go with some 8,000-10,000k bulbs to go along with my "full spectrum" and 6500k bulbs. I have 6 bulbs total so any links or names of bulbs in any of these spectrums would be greatly apprcieated.

Check the nearest or nearest couple of electrical supply shops, after the morning contractor rush. They can order most anything in one brand or another. They can usually show you the color spectrum sheets for lines they carry.
