This is the perfect light for my bearded dragon. Said it right on top of the tank and it definitely does the job. It’s a great quality brand and is as bright as it needs to be. It’s also a great size and it performs as described.

I'm not the person that got out a meter and measured lumens, wavelengths and stuff. I put them in the thing, turn them on. Few years on, the lizard is still alive, so they must work.My gripe is how Amazon's packers loosely drop these things in boxes with literal bricks, but forget any cushioning. Then I have to chat with Amazon CS 3 separate times, repeatedly asking them to not charge me cause I can't return smashed lightbulbs, but still getting charged until someone figures it out. Seriously. True story.

Initially I thought this product was ok as it looked fine. I used it for my bearded dragon enclosure for a month. My beardie started getting lethargic and I took her to the vet and they asked me to bring my bulb since they do UVB ray testing and it was at a 1 (should be at 75). And this was after I had taken off the thick plastic piece that was over top the bulb originally. Please please do not get this to use as your only UVB source, it does not give the UVB it advertises.

This product is great for my pet but it was shipped in a bigger Amazon box, allowing this item ( A UVB LIGHT ) to be bounced around in the packaging during shipment. The light had a bit of rattling as if something broke inside and is moving around. I went to plug the light in and noticed the switch was already on power on rather than off and I had thought that was weird.

There are many design flaws which make this lamp useless. First, the bulb is behind a layer of clear plastic, which blocks UVB rays. Second, it's impossible to mount properly. Desert reptiles require full spectrum UVB light. This means their uvb lamp must be mounted inside the terrarium.The only way to mount this lamp is to put it on top of the screen tank lid, which again blocks out most of the UVB rays. There's no way to secure the lamp on top of the cage so that it doesn't get knocked off by cats or children. It has two useless holes on the side which are totally inadequate, they're like the holes for picture hooks on a wall. I tried using suction cups with hooks to mount it inside the tank. The holes on the back of the lamp are too shallow to take hooks big enough to hold the weight of the lamp, and the lamp is too heavy anyway. It sagged towards the front, directing the light at the back of the tank, and then fell off after a few hours due to the weight. I even tried cable ties around the entire lamp, it's too big to fit the largest cable ties I could find.I don't recommend this item as a UVB lamp for reptiles. I can't think of any other use for it, either.

I like that this item suited my needs affordably-- I also did have to contact customer service and got excellent response from them.I'd contacted customer service because I could not for the life of me get the cover off. I, like many, had my fixture arrive with the light fluttering. I was able to remove the two screws as directed by customer service and give the bulb a little twist which corrected the flicker (it had been jarred in transit)I did worry about the plastic lens covering a UVB bulb, but my needs for the enclosure for this particular bulb we're great. I didn't want to spend a hundred dollars on a fixture for a scale-less/translucent lizard who needed UVB but in much smaller quantities than a lizard with scaled and normal skin. If you have need for smaller amounts of UVB or are using in a shallow tank application (I'd say 12 inches or less height from bulb) this is a good light fixture.If you are trying to put this on a 40 gallon breeder it isn't going to suite your reptile's needs, get a bigger bulb/fixture.This bulb gets slightly warm but does not provide heat, you will need a separate heat source.It really does come down to you get what you pay for, this is a small UVB light designed for a small enclosure. This is not intended for a large/deep enclosure for a very UVB dependent pet. If you need higher requirements none of these tube type applications will likely suit your needs, you'd be better off spending more and investing in MVB etc.For those with tiny tanks (20 gallon long or smaller) this really should suit your needs well for MOST UVB needy pets, and you can always use a UVB meter to ensure you are getting enough. Hope this info helps :D
