My new mega ray setup

[mark83]

Just got my mega ray in the mail today and I'm not sure if i need to "burn" it in? The website FAQ says you dont have to but ive read on here and other places you do.. Oh and how important is it for it to be facing str8 down? Like should I use a level or not that big a deal?

Also would a deep dome lamp be better or is my traditional one ok? Its a 150 watt w/ ceramic base and the bulb is a SB 100 watt. Thanks.

According to mega-ray, a burn in isn't necessary. However, be safe and let it at least burn in over night.

Yes, you want the bulb pointing straight down but it's not at all necessary to get the level out. :lol:

I prefer the deep dome so I would change it out.

You still want to let it burn it for 2-3 days.

to be on the safe side im gna let it burn a couple days. I want 2 c if tht white powder coating is gna wear off anyway since thts wat was causing the whole eye closing thing as i understand it. and im getn a deep dome asap cuz the bulb stickn out is annoying(and bright).
