Hi everyone
I have a nova extreme pro 36" fixture, still has the stock bulbs (3 - 10K and 3- actinic from Current) I'm going to look into replacing them with better options when it's time but I did want a bit of a different look so I bought a Current 6700K bulb to replace one of the 10K with. When I just did that not only did the 6700K bulb not light up but the actinic under it doesn't light either, this happens in any position I try it. Replacing it again with the stock 10K bulb brings back normally functioning.
Would a bad new bulb cause this issue with the perfectly fine actinic below it? That's the part I don't get.
Thanks for any ideas, I have an email into DFS (where I got the bulbs) asking their opinion and for a replacement.
