Exo-Terra Lighting Question

ymerejsregor Mar 19, 2008 03:53 PM

Hi all!

It's been a long, long time since I've been on here. Bruce is doing great. I'll cut to the chase and ask my question. I ordered a new fixture for Bruce's UVB lights as the old ones were impossible to find anymore. He was using an ESU 65 watt 7% UVB light. It was the funky double tube design with a single four pin connector. I ordered an Exo-Terra PT-2241 Light Cycle Unit as a replacement. Question is, should I use a single Reptiglo 10.0 along with a 2.0 or 5.0, OR should I install 2 Reptiglo 10.0 bulbs? I don't want to end up cooking Bruce, so I didn't know if 2 bulbs would overdo it or be just right. I do know that he was thriving with what he had and it was on top of the screen. These will be mounted below the screen, so that will make a difference, too.

Many thanks in advance to all. If there is anything I left out about his setup, let me know and I'll be happy to post anything else that might help.

JR
