ReptiSun 10.0 Mini Compact Fluorescent Lamp 13 Watts

Excellent quality, functions as needed, good quality, no flickering, good length, generates heat well.

My grandson has a hatchling turtle, and this is just what we needed for his UVB light. About $5 cheaper than we could find the exact bulb locally.

We always use this light. It’s perfect for our turtles needs.

They do the job; however, tend to be rather pricey.

This light is the right temperature for a gargoyle gecko. Since they are sensitive to temperature this light is perfect

These lights, called "UVB" are to give our turtles the benefits of sunlight or vitamin D because they do not get it in captivity unless out in the sun at least 20 minutes a day. Mine is outside with sun if he chooses to go in it so I don't rely on him going under it every day on te platform but during the winter, even here in Florida he needs this light when he can't go outside. The other light is a heat lamp, called "UVA". It is a 45 watt incandescent sattco from Amazon which gives turtle 90 degrees heat at 13". Some people (I was) are using 75 watt which at 13" gives 130 degrees!!. I found that out after my turtle didn't bask for 2 years and I bought a berrcom handheld thermometer on Amazon and was shocked to discover that. Good thing my turtle was smart enough to avoid the platform during that time.Now he goes under both to get healthy. Set the berrcom to "surface temperature. Also good to check the water temperature even if you have a heater. Or in a feeding container as it should be a little warm. Most administrators on FB turtle groups are recommending 65 to 75 watt bulbs. I ask them how to put it on the ceiling! I have a 6" Eastern Painted turtle. But the recommendations for all the species are 90 degrees for the UVA on the platform. I have mixed in the sattco review because so important.

Exactly as described

When I was using this bulb, it doesn't help my tortoise. It started to loose some claws and tortoise not eating for a long time even when I bask it under the sun here and there. In the end I bought a pack of lamps (6) with UVA/UVB/Heat. They are cheaper too. The nice thing about this is, it save electricity but for it effectiveness for your pet reptiles it is not that good. However, you could mixed it with other lamp to make it work but in my opinion all-in-one or all spectrum lamp is way better.

Buen producto, cumple con lo esperado y no llegó dañado a pesar del viaje internacional y su fragilidad.

とても良いです！！

Use in the turtle tank. It does its job well.

Excelente para mis pogonas, no crea un ambiente excesivamente caliente (tendiendo en cuenta que las utilizo en trópico seco)

I bought this bulb and a fixture as a supplemental UVB source for my lizard. The bulb was dead on arrival and would not turn on. To add insult to injury, when I went to initiate a refund/return, amazon listed that this item is not eligible for return! So now I am out $20 with a bulb that doesn't even work. Take your money elsewhere and go to a physical pet shop, at least they will actually refund you - I'd give this review 0 stars if it were an option.
