Repti-Zoo SuperSun UVB 70W L - metal halide terrarium light

Reptiles are much more dependent on the sun than mammals. All important biological processes are controlled by the sun, particularly metabolic cycles, activity, and rest. The most important controlling factors are light and heat radiation. They increase vigilance, drive, activity, and metabolic activity in reptiles.
The sun always produces light in combination with heat and UV and infrared radiation. The brighter the light, the more intense the sunlight and heat are usually, so in natural conditions, light, heat, and UV, IR radiation are interrelated.
To meet the needs of the kept animal, a full spectrum of visible and invisible colors along with heat wave emission must be provided.

Metal halide lamps uniquely emit all necessary light and heat waves with a balance similar to that of the sun, providing all essential light and heat waves for life.

An important feature of the metal halides Repti-Zoo is the appropriate dispersion of light, thus eliminating excessively sunny zones. Proper distribution of waves is extremely important, as effective heat regulation and vitamin D3 synthesis are only possible when the entire body of the reptile is irradiated.

Some types of lamps, particularly mixed light lamps and compact UV fluorescent lamps, have been characterized by unnaturally high levels of UV radiation. This sometimes led to serious skin and eye damage in animals. Meanwhile, metal halides have the appropriate level of UV in relation to heating and the emission of IR waves and visible light.

Animals kept under metal halides color much better and behave more naturally. The use of these lamps is slowly becoming a hit among professional breeders and is recommended to all reptile enthusiasts.

All these features of the metal halide lamp Repti-Zoo elevate this product far above the competition. One lamp effectively replaces: a heating bulb and UVB, additionally providing many more needed light beams than any other available on the market.

Metal halides require the use of an appropriate ballast, which can easily be found for sale.
