What colors do HID's come in.

Only thing I can find is from 5000k-9000k which covers white, purple, and blue. I'm looking for green. Anyone know the number of green? Or if they even make anything above 9000K?

I found these color charts but it doesn't show anything higher then 8,000K. Can someone find me a chart that has up to 40,000K?

a) blue-tipped bulbs are not HID's

-- they're halogen bulbs with blue-filter coatings on them

b) I've never seen a bulb rated higher than 5300K -- certainly nothing approaching 40,000K!

I have heard of burners in the 9K range...is this a falshood?
