Extra power for deeper terrariums

Compact full-spectrum, cooll burning lamps.

Reptisun Compact Lamp features:
• 5.0 UVB Tropical lamp has 5% UVB output. Ideal for all tropical basking reptiles.
• 10.0 UVB Desert lamp has 10% UVB output. Ideal for desert and other high UVB requirement reptiles.
• Helps prevent or reverse Metabolic Bone Disease in captive reptiles.
• 30% UVA to increase appetite and stimulate mating in captive reptiles.
• Special UV transmitting quartz glass.
• Self ballasted (no ballast needed) - screws into normal threaded socket.
• Ideal for clamp lamp fixtures.

The Reptisun 5.0 and Iguana Light 5.0 both have the highest level of both UVB and UVA wavelengths

UVB wavelength helps to prevent or reverse Metabolic Bone Disease in Green Iguanas as well as other species of lizards in captivity. Strengthens and improves shell growth on all captive turtles and tortoises.

UVA wavelegth increases appetite, activity, and helps to induce reproductive behavior in captive reptiles.

Safer than adding powdered or liquid synthetic D3 supplements, as the UVB wavelength allows all reptiles the ability to regulate their own Vitamin D levels by endogenous synthesis as they would in nature. Eliminates risk of vitamin D3 overdose (highly toxic) from synthetic sources.

Wavelength penetrates a full 10-12" from bulb's surface.

Bulbs last a minimum of one year before diminishing wavelength. (Replace Bulb at 1 to 1 1/2 years.)

Spectral power distribution studies show that tungsten filament bulbs (Neodymium bulbs or spot lamps) do not emit UVB and therefore do not assist the animals in D3 synthesis or calcium absorption.

Zoo Med's new Reptisun 2.0 bulb is for all captive animals that do NOT have high UVB requirements.

Simulates sunlight by providing the beneficial UVA and UVB wavelengths which increase appetite, activity and reproductive behavior in captive reptiles.
