T5 Spectral Plots

[Dwarf Seahorses]

Does anyone know if there's a website or something that measures spectral plots of T5 lamps, similar to Sanjay's website? Note that I'm looking for spectral plots, not PAR or PPFD.

You can view a lot of the spectral plots on the reefgeek site when you are buying bulbs. Check that out. Hope it's what you are looking for.

Yes, that's what I'm looking for. However, they don't mention what ballasts they were tested on.

Those are the spectral graphs supplied by the manufacturers. The manufacturer’s graphs are only to be used as an example and not exact values. Most manufacturers test the spectral output of the lamps phosphor combination and not the actual fluorescent lamps.

I personally do not believe anyone has done spectral plots on the lamps them self yet.
