Time to replace my uvb lights. Which to pick? and Why?

I currently use ZooMed compact Repti-suns for my turtles/tortoises. But I use the ZooMed Tublular style Repti-sun bulbs for all the other UV loving herps. Is there a difference? I know there was a run of bad compact bulbs a few years back, but have heard nothing further.

Is there preferred bulb for the reptile type - i.e. lizard, tortoise, etc?

AND, is there any proof that one brand is better than the other??

thanks
