      Thank you! I like all HID lamps, but of course I also love Mercury Vapor lamps. And I agree with you, the light is beautiful. Of course, it is also about whether the Mercury Vapor lamp is without a phosphor layer or with it. The presence of phosphor affects the color temperature, but also the color rendering index. And it also depends on how much yttrium vanadate the phosphor contains, because a lower quality phosphor layer causes rather cooler light with a green and blue tone. And when the phosphor is of better quality, the resulting light is, on the contrary, warmer and the color rendering is also better.

      @@Naguals_HID_Lamps yeah I totally agree with you! I'm fascinated for all HID lamps, and i think Led won't never has this "magic" like this lamps, they are very nostalgic, I aways remember the era that our life was illuminated by them in the past, this lamps will keep on our memory and i'm sou proud that someone who has this relics, thank you man and keep posting!

      @@viniciusscari That's right, LED lamps (either SMD or COB chips) light up practically immediately, so the classic start of HID lamps is missing here, but it can be imitated using a dimmer, which you can use to slowly light it up. But it will NEVER be exactly the same as with HID lamps. And there are other things, such as the fact that the LED emits blue light, which can be reduced as well as light pollution by using a layer of yellow phosphor to achieve a warmer light, but still, for example, many star observatories use High Pressure Sodium lamps, because unlike most LEDs, they cause such negligible light pollution that you can see beautiful stars under them at night. Thanks to LED lamps with, for example, 4000K, we hardly see the stars in cities anymore. And there are even more advantages that HID lamps have. And most importantly, it's natural light... It's light, that is literally created by the burning of a gaseous mixture in the burner, so they basically work on the principle of the Sun. The Sun is also a gas, that burns and thus shines. Natural light... And it also produces UV radiation. But LED is purely artificial light. I also have LED, that's true, but it doesn't beat HID lamps for me. I love HID.
