[QUOTE="kingofnobbys, post: 1897126, member: 81934"] Considering I buy my lights in bulk , and this applied to my latest Arcadia purchase of T5 12%UVB tubes ( 4 off ) and I'm yet to change my first set that came with my SlimLine reflector hoods (I've actually got 8 spare Arcadia T5ho 12%UVB 24W tubes on hand for two bearded dragons + 4 slimline kits & 4 spare tubes), it's gonna be a good while before I need to look at buying more + the fact no local pet shop actually stocks Arcadia anything here in my town ( so I can't just visit a pet shop and take a squiz at the packaging and documentation in the box ). So we'll just have to wait for someone else to have enough interest to come along and confirm your assertion on buying a new tube sometime in the near future ---- not holding my breath on that happening as this thread will likely be buried and forgotten by then. It's the tech data that comes with each tube or mvb that's important , company web sites don't always reflect the full scope of the specs and useage guidelines provided with their products. To include everything makes for a very detailed by confusing webpage and those who set up the webpages are usually not the engineers but marketing / sales people who have a "different" focus. I'll continue advising about 200 microW UVB flux / sq.cm at the basking spot and cool zone about 1/3 that with the tube no more than 2/3 the length of the viv. As these levels are fine and I'm yet to see proof that lower levels (in UVB and UVA flux or in UV-Index if one insists on using UV-Index as the "measure") are appropriate for pogona species. [/QUOTE]
