[QUOTE="mactac, post: 2014620, member: 117478"] It's a 12% "desert" light in a proper fixture. It's above one of those black screens, about 8-10 inches from her basking spot. I have a UV meter, it's 1600 uW/cm2 at her basking spot- this measures mostly UVA (320-400), but as a proxy for UVB - in other words, I use it as a relative measurement instead of an absolute. I have measured it at the same distance without the screen, and it's about 20% higher or so. I do see her move in more and out of the UV sometimes, so it seems that she is regulating UV well, though that might just be her moving around. We have a mercury vapor lamp as well, and have tried to add that in, but it seems like too much UV for her. we have actually wondered if she is getting too much UV sometimes, as she does have that issue with her eye being closed most of the time. Temp is with a digital probe thermometer for the ambient temp/humidity and a handheld laser spot for basking spot. We keep the humidity between 20-30%. [/QUOTE]
