ReptiWorks UVB 5.0 Spiral Energy-Saving Reptile Lamp – 26 W, 6 x 6 x 14.7 cm

The ReptiWorks UVB 5.0 spiral lamp gives a moderate level of UVB for tropical and forest reptiles and amphibians. UVB lets reptiles make vitamin D3, which they need to absorb calcium for strong bones. The compact spiral uses little energy and screws into a standard E27 socket; the 15 W lamp suits smaller enclosures and the 26 W lamp larger tropical set-ups.

Key features

Good to know

Fit the lamp over the basking area at the distance given on the pack, run it on a 10 to 12 hour daytime cycle and replace it when the pack advises, as UVB output fades before the visible light does.
