| It is very bright. The CRI is dependent on the halide chemistry inside the lamp.

| You have to remember that with discharge lighting, they don't like frequent switching, and they need to be run for at least 4 or 5 hours at a time. Preferably only one or two switching cycles a day.

| Some stores use MH fixtures indoors, in troffers and high/low bays.

Collect vintage incandescent and fluorescent fixtures. Also like HID lighting and streetlights.

Yes, but they will be only switched once a day and will be run for a long time. |

So it is ideal for shops and museums. |

As I saw these lamps have good CRI (80 or better) and long life. |

That is good.If lamp has Hg inside the arc tube,CRI should be lower ,right ? |
