Product Information
Full details
High quality D3 basking lamp from Arcadia Reptile. Essential for the correct assimilation of Calcium through the D3 cycle. This lamp offers incredible efficiency while creating idyllic UV-rich basking spots. UV light bulbs generate heat, light and ultraviolet light all from a single lamp. These lamps also offer a healthy dose of UV light, essential for the absorption of vitamin D3 into your reptile's body, allowing them to make the most of the calcium in their diet. Without an effective UV provision, your pet is at risk of metabolic bone disease. The average life of a D3 UV Basking Lamp is around 6,000 hours or 8 months of continuous usage. However, used with an effective terrarium light controller, that you regularly switch on or off to create an adequate temperature gradient, we would expect the bulb to last a year or longer. Mercury vapour bulbs are safe when they are kept intact, given sufficient room and hung in a vertical position. The vertical position allows convection currents to circulate normally within the bulb, prolonging its lifespan. As with all Mercury Vapour bulbs, these cannot be used with a thermostat or external ballast, and should only be used in large enclosures, or open-top tables.
