Compact Fluorescents higer than 6500K

[jmhart]

Has anybody ever seen some CFL's with higher K values than 6500K? I'm talking about the sprial bulbs.

Yeah yeah, if I used Power Compacts I could go higher, but I don't. I've never come across any higher than 6500K and a quick google search didn't reveal anything.

The 6500 daylight bulbs are "fairly" new to the market. I have not seen any higher, but with time they will come out with some if there is a need a for them. The 6500's were never intended to be used in aquariums to begin with so who knows if they will ever make any higher.

Yeah, I was defintiely excited to see the 6500K's. I'm not complaining, I like them a lot, just curious.

I'd like to find some myself... the only screw in CFL higher than 6500k that I was able to find were the 10000k 50/50s, although they're straight not spiral:

Colormax also makes freshwater, same shape & w, but no k is listed. If you find anything, please post it
