5.0 out of 5 stars Awsome bulb
These bulbs not only have the required output and at low wattage but due to there unique shape they have a much better light output pattern i recommend these very highly
2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't last very long
Bulb didn't last very long, purchased one at half the price which lasted twice as long
4.0 out of 5 stars It's still going!
We've been using this daily for around a week or so and it's still working (unlike so many recently), my tort seems happy to bask with it and it's been on multiple hours without showing any issues. How long it lasts, time will tell! But I'll update if any issues arise.Overall the quality is reasonable for the money and it seems to do a good job.
5.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and works great
I got this as a backup just in case my tube stops working on a weekend or holiday time and I cant get a tube.Test it and works fine and worth the money
3.0 out of 5 stars Moderate Performance with Considerations
The Reptile Tortoise UVB 10.0 Light Kit Bulb offers a moderate lighting solution for reptile habitats. Designed to emit UVA and UVB rays essential for reptile health, this CFL bulb serves its purpose adequately. However, its performance may vary based on individual reptile species and enclosure setup.While the bulb effectively provides UV light, I found that its longevity and consistency could be improved. Some users may experience fluctuations in output over time, requiring frequent replacements to maintain optimal lighting conditions. Additionally, the Energy Class D rating suggests moderate energy efficiency, which may result in slightly higher electricity costs over time.Furthermore, while the bulb is marketed as suitable for various reptile species, it's essential for pet owners to monitor their animals closely for signs of inadequate UV exposure or other health issues. Consulting with a reptile specialist is recommended to ensure proper lighting and overall habitat conditions.In summary, the Reptile Tortoise UVB 10.0 Light Kit Bulb offers a functional lighting solution for reptile enclosures but falls short in terms of longevity and consistency. Considering its moderate performance and potential energy costs, I rate this product three stars.
1.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly short lifespan.
The UV bulb I received turned on and looked fantastic - for all of about 1/2 a second before it burnt out / died.Other than not working it looks very nice and there was no damage to the packaging. I've no clue if this was just a faulty one-off or a common thing with these bulbs.Based on the fact the one I received lit up for about as long as it took for those initial photons from it to reach my eyes I would struggle to justify recommending this bulb to anyone.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good Value UVB
Good value and good quality UVB lamp which is easy to fit into my bulb housing for my tortoise, great for a boost of these important rays for his health, and support his calcium metabolism, I think this is a sturdy bulb that will last a long time and arrived in good condition with easy access to customer service if needed.
4.0 out of 5 stars Does the job
I recently picked up this UVB Lamp for my vivarium, and so far, it's been a solid addition to it. It's nicely made and does exactly what it's supposed to. While I can't vouch for its long-term durability just yet, especially given its affordable price tag of £13.97, for now, it's doing the job well. I'd recommend it to others looking for a budget-friendly option.
