Help Identifying a pepper type

Hello all, I need some help identifying a pepper plant I have growing this year. It has been brutally hot in Texas this year and I planted quite a few pepper seeds and varieties-ghost, habanero, jalapeno, jwala, cayenne, poblano, and some kind of mystery pepper. It has large deep almost blood red pods that have a fruity flavor somewhat reminiscent of ghost peppers, but not near that hot-maybe 15,000-40,000 scoville. I have searched all over the internet trying to locate anything that looks like them and some of the Japanese peppers are similar, but not exact. I was hoping maybe someone was growing this variety and would recognize them from this post. Thank you in advance for any help you may supply in this area,
 
Richard

I grow some smooth chocolate bhuts that look similar to those. could be a bhut cross with a dominant  lesser hot variety. They do look burgundy like a 7 pot, which is one of maybe only 2-3 red peppers I deliberately grow. Definitely interested in how these progress. Do they produce well?
 
They are not as big or as prolific as a ghost pepper, maybe 30 pods at a time with about 10 ripe at a time and they have more seeds than a ghost pepper-I have already got about 200 seeds, so once I figure it out it will be nice-will definitely keep growing them
