BLT mix up? Ordered some “Osram HQI-Ts” from BLT direct, the original ones with the bubble discharge tube, as advertised on the site? But when I got the email saying “there’s an unexpected delay to your order”, I sort of guessed they wouldn’t have actually had any of the original ones! However these turned up instead!, which is cool that they’re NARVA’S and that they’re a type of power ball, as I only have one of those!

Interesting!

I’m not sure what these tubes are actually known as?, technically they’re not real power balls with the joint in the middle as OSRAM did them, but this is a pretty good moulding for PCA! Cool

I have a suspicion these are made at Sylvania Germany they have the look of my 35w Sylvania lamps to them

Interesting, but they have made in China printed on them Razz

Venture CMH lamps have similar looking arc tubes.

Narva E.V. thats says it all. E.v. is not a company but a registry association to protect/keep the name… Narva brand erbisdorf wich is a completely independent company as well as philips with their plant in plauen are also part of that association… The arctubes look identical to the ones on mu aura cmh’s. And yes the fact they come from china does not surprise me at all…

Also note the lamp on the box has a g22 cap
