Par Pro® 1100 Watt Hyper Arc® HPS Lamp

Does anyone have any experience or feedback on these Par Pro Hyper Arc or the other Hight Output Mogul based lamps that seem to be utilizing a DE Arc Tube that are hiring the market?

I have seen an old thread on here somewhere where someone mentioned it but no grow results or anything.

DE arc tube in a SE bulb, correct.

What do you want know about this bulb?

Nanolux maxpar se-de as well

Feedback from anyone who has tried these "De in a Se" type lamps?
Results, Longevity, Ballast Compatibility etc...

Just a follow up post to let anyone interested know that I am taking one for the team on the Par Pro 1100W lamps. Will have them up and running on new remote DE ballasts tomorrow evening and will report back on first impression.
It is refreshing to see this level of information provided with the lamp and the overall quality appears to be top notch for the tiny price tag.
@TEKNIK , what's your impression from the specs brother?

depends on which one you compare to?
and dont expect too much on HPS spectrum changes, 'cause it wont.

Not looking for anything magical in the spectrum department. But these are clearly DE spectrum and not SE.
Just want to turn it up to 11

its a 1100w HPS, so i guess you have to run this on super setting to see its true power

The spectrum and performance looks very impressive. Not sure how long they keep the performance up for. Would be difficult to beat that with LED's

Let me know how they go growing lettuce

Follow up on these lamps - I would NOT recommend them....
I purchased two of them. Admittedly I ran them dimmed to 600W - then 750, 1000, etc to ramp them up as the weeks went on.
One started randomly having problems igniting within about a month. Swapped back and forth on multiple ballasts and narrowed it down to that lamp.
The spectrum also seems a bit whack when compared to the Hortilux Super HPS (which is what I went back to).
I belive USHIO has a Mega 1000W SE HPS lamp as well and I would definitely give that a go based on the quality I have seen in other USHIO lamps I have in the garden.
So my recommendation would be Hortilux Super HPS or USHIO. Both of which can be run on a DE ballast and boosted to 1150 if you looking to squeeze a little extra out of them
