The choice of lighting is crucial. Inspectors must examine kernels of grain which are judged based the intensity of color. If some bulbs are of a different lumen, color index, and color temperature it can cause inspectors to misjudge the kernels. These H & H bulbs have a unique color index and lumens not found in any other bulbs and are the only bulbs used by inspectors because they have been proven to produce the best results. The use of any other brand of bulbs other than H & H would also require replacement of all the bulbs when only one is extinguished which would be quite costly and unnecessary. H&H Industries Inc. is a Small Business
