does this strip have the Reflective shield behind the bulb??

The receptacle for the bulb is painted white and does reflect light down into the aquarium; but there is no separate reflective shield behind the mount in the casing. The case is dark brown fairly heavy-duty solid plastic.

I have not had an issue with it reflecting light however, I don't have any light sources on the same level. It certainly shows a flashlight when directed into the screen, but only the actual bulb reflection, not glare. Hope this helps.

You cannot see the bulb. It covers completely. I also added a dimmer to my light switch. BeAutiful

Yes it does. A very bright low-profile led strip. Brighter than stock for sure.

I gave that particular one as a gift and I can't remember. It looks as though the leaves might hide the glare. The one I am using is the Iris and you can see the bulb, but it is somewhat curved so you don't notice the glare so much. Hope this helps.

Just the chrome. One kind has chrome strips that go over the lights and there is another kind that just goes around the light. I like the one better that goes over the light and that is the one in the picture shown.

Like the previous answer nope, but it came with a plastic reflective device which I didnt use because I didnt need it. Guess depends how you position your system.

Hi Richard, yes, there are reflective strips on the back as well. You can view that in the 2nd photo in the listing. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you for your interests. Nathan

My bulbs had a cover. There is a version of these bulbs without a cover, so that may be what those reviews were about.

Not originally when they are first installed. I had need to use BOTH this product and Scotchlite in same area. The Scotchlite initially was somewhat more reflective, but after a few months, the Scotchlite seems to degrade and now a year later, these UST strips are at least 2X as reflective as the Scotchlite tape.

No. I purchased the LED bulbs for the ones that I am using. It gives off great light and coverage area.

If you can find model BA-1002, it does have a seal-protected switch. BTW, the model BA-1002 does not have a bulb holder. I bought mine at a big box store for about $13 each.

Yes it does! A clear plastic cover on the bottom of one lights the plate. These lights work great and are nice and bright.

None that I am aware of at present. I installed my Full Spectrum Light Bulbs (ALZO 45W CFL) in light sockets without a globe or shade (not my original plan). Used in this fashion they throw a lot of light as long as you aren't too concerned about appearances. One is mounted horizontally and another vertically. Both have been in service since the beginning of this year without any problem.

it does not but does have a plastic reflective device that purports to function the same. Unfortunately, the device does not work well.

Yes it has the Revolution 200 LED Bulb installed. Note that this isn't the brightest bulb but, it is more than adequate for the job. I've had it up for a while now and is performing very well.

Yes, it does. I had to be shipped two units before I got a working bulb though.
