They do and they also have the spec's and pic's in their general catalog.

 That's one of the big complaints

Well, you need to look at the HQI bulbs then. They cost more, they are
smaller, you can pay a lot for them, 2x as much in many cases.
That's why this is such a good deal IME. 

Some companies make even smaller fixtures, 3x 4x4 but those run another
100+$ and need to be retrofited.
Still not a bad deal with the bulb no matter how you slice it.  
Replacement bulb temps run at 5,200K and at 10,000K, there maybe some
different color temps available(6500-6700K) but these are pretty good.
