Well I finally got my new bulbs from Hamilton. I bought 55 watt 10K and 03 actinic. When I put both bulbs in the 03 lit up quickly. Now on the other hand the 10K just barely lit up. I called Hamilton and they said that I would have to give the bulb some time for it to warm up. Well I gave it a half hour and nothing. Do you guys think I got a bad bulb and they are kidding or does it really need a couple hours to warm up. I didn't have this problem with the old bulbs either. THanks!

I guess it a bad bulb. I checked both sockets and the 03 bulb fire instantly on both. That is weird that I got a bad brand new bulb.
