The 36'' is 25 watts.

It might be a long shot, but try looking at the bulb and see if it says the wattage.

the sites im looking at show the 36'' as 25watts. but his pic is showing me different. i REALLY hope it is 25 watts but pics are worth 1000 words


edit** i just looked on zoomed's official website and it shows the 36'' reptisun 10.0 bulb as a 25 watt!!! so i have no clue how yours says 30 watts.. maybe you go an old bulb.

I had to double check but it definitely is a 30 watt Fluorescent.

So, what about the pic I took or has my age finally caught up to me? lol

Ok I just looked at the bulb itself does F25T8 mean 25w if so I started this whole thing for nothing. But why would the dag gone box say 30w?

I bought it at Reptilesupply.com

I am not sure, I am not really good with knowing the terminology for something like that (who would be...) :?

[Claudiusx]

I am trying to figure it out right now.

LOL well whoever has a 36" T8 Reptisun 10 look at the bulb and see if it says F25T8. That would be the only way to at least rule out if its a 25w or not. LOL
But, the perplexing part is that damn box. LOL

 

[Claudiusx]

From everything I have found, "F25T8" has all came up with 25 watt bulbs.

I couldn't find out if the actual 25 in F25T8 means 25 watts, but I think you can assume that. It seems too big of a coincidence to me.

Well thanks I appreciate everyone's input. Brandon thanks for taking the time out and doing some research on it. Dag gone box had this 'Ole Marine thinking he was losing it!
