Would a tanning reflector improve performance?

Not really. You need some kind of charge regulator. either way i would pass

Probably not, due to the size of the collector the reflected light from the tanner would not be significant enough to make a difference.Also the charge controller stops the charging cycle at a certain voltage.

i would just get some reflector tape, b/c there is little surface area to work with

It is not the purpose. You can lower the brightness, but not totally reduces solar glare.

this might work, if exposed to enough light. something reflective might be a better choice. maybe a trial test would be in order to find out for sure.

No. This enhances existing low light only. Thermal is a different technology, and it's pretty awesome.

The LED will actually perform better the colder it gets. But heat on the other hand can reduce the efficiency and lifespan or in some cases even burn out an LED lacking a proper heatsink.

With a conventional truncated cone shaped shade, a lot of light is reflected down by the shade so it works quite well. If you have a more cylindrical shade it may not be as good.

I bought the tint for this reason. I moved into a house which faces the morning sun. The radiant heat was unbearable even after installing draw down blinds and curtains. After applying the tint the heat went down considerably. I am considering applying this product on the windows on the west side of the house but I do enjoy some natural light. The tint will darken a room considerably but the cooling factor is a plus for anyone living in a hot climate.

It defuses the sun light. No squinting. Suppose to help with uv. You do not feel direct sun het. I like the product. Not easy to install.

Yes, I think it should - it will darken it a bit, although I think there is a "dark glow" or something like that available.I like it because it doesn't streak like tanning lotions.

Possibly. I like natural to tan because it gives me just a tiny bit of color.

I spent at least two days trying to tan my arms and face using this device and I noticed no measurable difference in skin tone nor did it lighten any tattoos. For that reason, I would not recommend using this on your skin but then again your experience may vary. There are probably better devices if you plan on using this on your skin. (PS...it's a class 2 laser - which i learned after a quick consultation with a friend named Google.)

Works great for both! People at tanning salon I go to even asked what I use, they said I always look so dark. Well worth the price!!

Because there are no reflective panels to provide the same radiant heat effect as a proper patio heater, you have to basically lean right into it (past the table edge) to get much effect at all. All the heat energy is going up. An enclosed porch might trap more heat, but all that warmed air is going up to the ceiling. So no.

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.

I haven't used one with it yet myself, but I don't see why not. Polished aluminum fixtures like these can reflect a lot more light downward than painted fixtures, but that's more of an issue for CFL UVB bulbs than anything else (output can easily be doubled for those bulbs). CHEs, like spot lamps are already pretty directional, possibly even more so. I'd say just follow general CHE guidelines like Zoo Med's http://www.zoomed.com/Library/ProductDBFiles/ceramicheat.pdf I know it specifically lists 3 Zoo Med fixtures, but the big thing seems to be having a porcelain socket.

I suppose it might help a little, but it probably won't completely compensate for a total lack of natural light. Maybe taking some supplementary vitamin D and going outside on your lunch break would be good additional measures.
