This could sound like a strange question but it could same me a lot of money on bulbs!
I bought a cheap 3x24w luminaire ages ago on eBay, but I think the bulbs were crap as they all died quite quickly one after the other. As it was cheap, I need to know if it is a standard size or just some knock off that won't fit the sizes of the standard T5 bulbs, like the 22" Arcadia.

Question: Is the 22" measured from the pins or the actual bulb? :?
Oh and while I'm asking, does anyone know the Kelvin rating of that Arcadia bulb? ^^ I usually find the plant pro thingy's to make the tank look waaay too pink
Cheers,
Tom
