Mega Ray unavailible?!?

[brillobee]

It's been awhile since I needed a new mvb, so I ordered a new megaray from reptile uv, like always. Well I never got my bulb, and went to the website and from the sounds of it I guess the Mega Ray is unavailble until further notice. So I need to get another brand. My local Reptile shop stocks a mvb made my westron, ( the original suppliers of the mega ray). But I read on Reptile uv, that some of the westrons were bad. Is that true? Anyone know which mvb is the best and closest to the mega ray 100w? I hate to have to change my setup, when it works so well now. Thanks. Oh, my mvb has burnt out now, how long can a beardie go without uvb, and just D3 supplementation?

Please see the article below, this will explain why they havent been responsive and why their bulbs have been burning out.

I have a Solar Raptor that burned out, but now is back on.. but I am too afraid to use it, as I don't even know if it has good UVB output..

I do use the Trex ACTIVE MVB for my baby beardies, and they do really well with it. This is the only other MVB I will ever use.
