Exo Terra UVB200 T5 VHO Bulb

Exo Terra UVB200 T5 VHO Bulb –

High quality lamp, ensuring a prolonged UV output of 12+ months for lasting performance. With its intense output of UVA and UVB rays – combined with a well-balanced visible light spectrum – the bulb is specifically designed to meet the needs of reptiles that bask occasionally or in partial sunlight in the Mesophotic Zone. The intensity of the emissions varies depending on the distance from the basking area.

Balanced levels of UV are vital for the physiological wellbeing of these animals, whose natural habitats showcase the ideal combination of sunlight and shade. They exhibit adaptive basking behaviours by optimising body temperature and UVB intake while avoiding overheating – fulfilling metabolic needs through a calculated exposure to sunlight.

The Exo Terra® Reptile UVB200 VHO T5 Bulb helps promote healthy Vitamin D3 synthesis, which in turn facilitates improved calcium absorption – safeguarding against Metabolic Bone Disease. Its UVA and UVB emissions surpass those of traditional T8 bulbs and energy-efficient alternatives, while enhanced UVB penetration extends its suitability for use in taller terrariums or those equipped with denser screens.
