UVB measurements

HittoriHanzo Apr 25, 2007 06:56 PM

I just posted the same question in the Uro forum so forgive me if anyone has read it there already, but I was at Target and saw a air temperature UVA/UVB monitoring device ($20) designed for limiting sun-exposure. I was wondering if anyone has ever used one of these, or if anyone thinks it might be useful for reptile applications.

I only have a UVB meter to see if my bulbs are good or need replacing.
I don't know much about what your looking at except that if anything I would feel that our lizards may not get enough sun exposure, not too much, so not sure if this would be worth your while, except for your own curiosity.

Where did you get your meter from?
