Looks like the coating on the lamp is a phosphor, because of it reddish color during startup.

It may, but I’ll take a blacklight to it eventually to confirm.

Cool Cool Looks like a similar translucent coating some of ours had rather than the fully white coating of mercury lamps.

Thanks! Very similar to your coated SON lamps; thick enough to defuse, thin enough for output.
