Purplekrunchie Well-Known Member Dec 18, 2010 #7 What's the numbers on the bulbs? Should be printed on the glass.

sup@baked Well-Known Member Dec 18, 2010 #12 It looks like a Metal Halide to me, the filament piece is short and fat, looks like a glass bubble with the ends pinched. Here is a picture of a HPS bulb, http://www.tradekorea.com/product-detail/P00225110/American_Standard_High_pressure_sodium_lamp.html The filament is longer and looks to be a tube with the ends plugged. I am not an expert and could be wrong, just trying to help you out. Also the HPS tend to be longer in general and MH tend to be the fatter ones. But this is not always the case, especially with older bulbs.
