I would pass on that bulb. Why not just get a MVB for both UVB and heat?

I would have to second that pass... Doesn't seem like a reputable company, at least I've never heard of "high noon" or ever seen a solarmeter test on it :/

I'd go with a mega ray or powersun just my opinion.I use mega ray and have solar glo,i'll never use solar glo again just my opinion.Low uvb out put and i can say that cause i have a solar meter to show it.But again just my opinion.
