  Okay. I didn't know you had tried yours
out yet. And I hadn't payed attention
to whether Richard was using the same
bulb as you, or just one similar in size.

  The Cabin also has the benefit of a pretty
amazing diffuser to convert the edge lighting
into an even surface.

  If someone was looking for integrated
and thin lighting I think the Cabin could
be cut down and fit in a MF stereo viewer.
(Just speculation right now since I
haven't taken mine apart).

On this page:
http://www.jkllamps.com/fluorescent.html

they say:
   "RGB Narrow Spectrum, High Intensity White Fluorescent
    Delivers Ultimate Enhancement of LCD Color Displays"

and http://www.jkllamps.com/techbriefs.html
the Electromagnetic Spectrum pdg shows the
output light from their RGB phosphor. Unforturnately
they don't have comparitive ones for their
other two types.
