I would have to say no, my wife uses it to cross stitch. It does not give off damn near any heat

the 10.0 uvb reptisun bulb will reach up to 20 inches. The 5.0 will reach up to 12 inches so it depends on how deep your tank is as to which one you get. It is a very good bulb. I use the 10.0 on my bearded dragons. Their tank is 20 inches deep. Hope this helped. Good luck. :)

Ceramic heat lamps sold for reptiles work for this application. I used one years ago when our parrot was ill. Clip the lowest watt one to the side of the cage and he/ she will snuggle up or move away as they choose.

The effective range of this style of UV-C lamp is quite small and the bulb can cause eye irritation. This is why the lamps all have fans to intake air then irradiates bacteria within the sealed chamber.

Not in my opinion. Leopard geckos need heat and the top of this unit probably won't accommodate a heat lamp without melting the plastic screen frame, though you could use UTH without problems. Also, it is pretty small for a gecko of any type or size. We have our bearded dragon (also a desert reptile like the leopard gecko) in an extra large Tetrafauna Deluxe Reptohabitat and we love it, though the Tetrafaunas can be hard to find.

This particular bulb is uvb only.Don't expect to find a combo bulb at this pricing.

I don't think any bulb would fit right in there the whole thing is a bit awkward but as long as it works and produces UVA and UVB then I'm happy

I happen to be in the lamp manufacturing business. The output of this mirror LED is in the visiable range. It has no harmful UVB or UVA component. In fact the spectral response provides excellent duplication of natural daylight.

This lamp is for Honeywell RUVLAMP1/C UV Air Treatment System only. Do not attempt to use it for anything else.

A simple answer; Yes. You must understand that I am using two of these lamps on a refugium chamber equivalent to about a 15 gallon tank. The animals in that chamber sure look happy. Note again that I am using two of these lamps at a time, one wont quite do it.

I would not put a high powered basking bulb into this light fixture at all. It will almost certainly cause the plastic housing to warp. We use a separate dome for the basking bulb and use this fixture solely for UV bulbs.

Don't listen to answers here about this unit. Contact: sales@ispringfilter.com. I believe they sell a 220V transformer/power supply for the UV lamp. Great system if you follow the instructions to the letter. Hope this helps. Doug

I don't know if this will help you but I have several different brands and each is a different size. The only one that gives the bulb wattage is a Germ Guardian UV-C Mini Sanitizer Wand Model LW9 that has only one lamp. The dimensions for this wand are 10.3"Lx1.5"Wx1.6"H and the Germicidal Lamp is listed as 4W DC Lamp.

Yes, it works the very same way as the UV lamp. I bought the LED lamp because the bulbs never have to be replaced and it is safer for skin, according to the reviews. This unit has sufficient timer settings for product that takes a little longer to cure. The cavity is smaller than the UV lamp for some reason, but the fingers and thumb fit just fine, and it is sufficiently roomy for toes, too. So far, I do not regret buying this lamp. UPDATE: Now that I've had an opportunity to use this unit a few times, I do have one issue with the system that I didn't think to consider when I purchased it. The lamp is only in the top of the unit and the sides are reflectors. While it is true the unit can accommodate the fingers and thumb, the outside edge of the thumb for most clients does not cure because the reflectors have no effect and the light does not "see" the outside edge of the thumb. Thus, thumbs have to be held over the index finger (uncomfortable) to cure with the fingers, or they have to be cured separately. Had I realized this about the unit I would not have purchased this system.

This bulb is a novelty/decoration item and it emits UV-A light, to effectively kill bacteria you should find a bulb that emits UV-C. The type of bulb that will emit UV-C is NOT a toy and will fairly quickly cause damage to eyes and skin. Suggest Google search: "where to buy UV light to kill bacteria."

As a general light, yes. Depending on the turtle, many need UVA and UVB lights to grow and digest food. This light only has room for one bulb and cannot house both requirements for most tutrles or reptiles.
