Hi there, Recently I was poking around Hagen's Zilla site because we always ask new members to our bearded dragon group about their lighting arrangemnt, and...
Hi, I think you may be confusing Hagen with Energy Savers Unlimited (ESU). Zilla is a division of Central Garden and Pet, which has bought up many of the...
Hi, Tyler and Bryan Yes, Bryan is correct - I'm sure Tyler meant ESU not ExoTerra. The older ESU products were, as Tyler says, made with a very low UVB output...
Hello Frances, Thanks, that is what I was thinking it probably was not going to be that great of a product. The concept sounds pretty good, but with the...
Yeah I just confused myself due to zilla products replacing exo-terra in a few stores around here, and it got stuck in my head apparently. Everything else but...
I have used these heat projector products for years...ever since Bob had em available. I point them at basking spots and then tweak the basking spot temp by...
I visited Saipan while on a tour in the US NAVY in 1977~1978. This explains why it was so hot in the sun and why we burned so easily. We could not stay in the...
... Hi, Nino. If you're in the USA, the cheapest place to buy a Solarmeter is direct from Steve Mackin himself (the designer and creator of Solarmeters)at...
Thank you very much, Frances, for your informative reply. I have been given two bearded dragon lizards. After reading about uvb lamps, especially regarding...
Hi, Nino. If you are choosing a high-output UVB mercury vapour lamp like the MegaRay, Id suggest that a Solarmeter 6.5 UV Index meter would be a good choice....
One last clarifying question, Frances, if you would be so kind as to continue your very understandable discourse: Would the Solarmeter 6.5 UV Index Meter be...
You can also buy a 6.2 from www.Reptileuv.com at the same price as from Solarmeter. But as Frances has mentioned, as of this last year many top brand name...
Thanks Dave!BobMac http://www.reptileuv.com http://www.reptileuvinfo.comhttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/UVB_Meter_Owners/ If you do nothing else today, visit and...
Yes, definitely! The problem comes only when a lamp such as a low-UVB output fluorescent tube is tested... and the reading hovers in the 0.1 to 0.3 or 0.4...
Hello Bob, OH yes, I did see that ad for Zilla no less on the back page of the Reptiles Mag. UGH! To my knowledge, they have not improved their lighting at...
Tracie, we have not tested ANY new R-Zilla lamps yet so we are not in a position to comment upon whether they have improved their lighting or not. I was...
Thank you so very much for your detailed and understandable Solarmeter 6.5 discussion. The 'gain' is electronic amplification; electronic noise and other ...

Hello Frances, Ugh, that is what I was afraid that you would say. I have to admit though, at least they put in a halogen type of bright light with it though,...
Frances, Do you have any results on the soon to be released Mega-Ray 70w EB Metal Halide? -Nino ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Hi, Tracie. Yes, the halogen in the middle of the dome is bright, but this does not necessarily force the owners to mount the light further away - because...
I'm working on a report for these right now. I have tested several prototypes, all have the typical ReptileUV lamp shape and size (PAR38 with brass collars)...
Hello Frances, Bob and all Is there any time horizon for release? Cheers! Oliver ... -- Psssst! Schon das coole Video vom GMX MultiMessenger gesehen? Der Eine...
I spoke to Mega-Ray at length about a week ago and was told that they *hope*to release the EB 70w Metal Halide for about 85$ in about 2 months. -Nino ... ...
I think Reptile UV is so trustworthy typically because of this. You never forget to be as independant as you are. There's enough "advise" in the world with a...
Hi Nino Would this be the price including the Ballast? Cheers oliver ... -- Psssst! Schon das coole Video vom GMX MultiMessenger gesehen? Der Eine für Alle:...
Yes, sorry that is the "Kit" price. It will possibly be $10 more than the current $75 price for the 65w EB Mega-Ray. Both have the "narrow beam" configuration,...
