ReptiGlo safe at all? need answer quick

[Gail]

Is there any ReptiGlo bulbs that are safe to use for a short while? I'm taking in a baby today and can't get a repti sun for at least 2 weeks, maybe longer. The local pet store does carry reptiglo though and I'd like to use one for the time being as long as it won't damage her eyes.

I plan on making sure she gets plenty of natural sun too but its going to be cloudy/rainy for the next few days.

ive always had success with the repti glo 8.0 ...but its really hard to find b/c I think they stopped making it. last time I stocked up on them from www.lllreptile.com
hope you can locate one, the reptisun is a better bulb, but the reptiglo 8.0 was not on the scientific study for questionable bulbs & like I said Ive never had problems with them.

I use them when I cant get the reptisuns. Ive yet to have a problem. (knock on wood)

I went ahead and picked up a 10.0, hopefully I won't have any problems. Thanks for the advice

I use the 10.0 Repti-GLO tubes in 4 enclosures and don't have any problems.
