Hi, Darren. Full sunlight doesn't vary nearly so much in intensity of visible light, once the sun is well up in the sky, as it does in UVB content, so lux...
Thanks Frances I am interested from the point of view 1, of observing my own tortises habits, and yes your right in the full sun they are not active but move...
hi all marketing says 10% uv-b and 30% uv-a in compact lamps or tubes: what does this say in µw/cm2 uv-b with a given 30 watt bulb?? what do i have to expect?...
If I were you I'd forget the whole percentage story. It's only confusing. How much % of what? exactly my point... I like to stay away from compacts and tubes...
Hi Hank (nickname for Henry in the US). The "rest of the 60%" for reptile lamps in the visible light 400-750nm bandwidth. Very silly way to describe percent UV...
Hi, the percentage uvb and uva is strange, when trying to decide if a lamp has enought uvb to enable vitamind production. Here µW/cm² is much better. But -...
hi all, is a heat pad or hot rock nothing but another shape of an infrared radiator? i wouldnt have any idea what else it would emit. how comes that the...
Hi Henry, not really. Every object that has a temperature above zero Kelvin emits thermal radiation. And so does a heat pad. But the radiation is really weak, ...
Sarina... yes uW/cm2 "amount" of UVB is far more important than "percent" UVB - any way one chooses to calculate percent. But for lamps with too much...
Hi Henry, me again, if this is the heat emitter of bob you are talking of: http://www.reptileuv.com/megaray-hp-60-watt-heat-projector.php I suppose this one...

I don't know why people on the internet are always so quick to make derogatory remarks about subjects they have absolutey no experience with. would it make...
I lost Lucky Lizard Thursday night. In retrospect i should have been kinder in my choice of words in that last comment. never the less, the facts are correct...
Hello Bob, if you refer to my mail: I do think that the heat emitter is a very clever construction und much better in most applications than a "normal" ceramik...

Hi, everyone. Bobmac, I'm so very sorry to hear about Lucky Lizard's death. He was such a brave little guy and went through so much, especially the pioneering...
Would this be suitable for heating an area of my greenhouse for tortoises that only need to warm up before they venture out to get natural uv and come and go...
Bob, I'm very sorry to hear that. I know you just had the trachea stent put in and had hight hopes for him. My condolences, ==== Robert Allen mailto:...
Well i for one am glad you work so hard to make your products avilable to us all cause you only have to try one of your lights or other products once to find...
this is half the point: in germany you buy high price "reptile" lamps which are not worth a shit. it is even difficult for an insider to distinguish; how...
Henry, as explained, my hard response was due to just loosing a very good friend, and for that i'm sorry. but an excellent physicist should have had their...
thanks rob. i hope to have his full story up on the website this week. He was the only reptile that this was attempted on. i am hoping that the stent procedure...
Bob, Really sorry about Lukcy ! Brain, the heat projectors are not in the UK yet, i have spoken to bob about getting this instock in the UK but we need to get...
Hello Bob, I did not say you were lying! I just assumed that the testing conditions must have been more in favour of the heat projector (for example by ...
Oh Bob! Very sorry about Lucky Lizard! I'd been following his tribulations and he obviously broke new ground and the path has been opened for others. It...
Hi, everyone. I think there are two definitions of "efficiency" here. (Efficiency? Effectiveness? These are different things...) The first one is the technical...
