Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • Enhanced UVB Output: The Pro Model’s 6% UVB (20% higher than Advanced) meets strict reptile care standards for species like bearded dragons.
    • Heat Regulation: Advanced Model’s 85°C surface temp ensures safe basking zones without overheating.
    • Mercury-Free CFL Tech: Eliminates environmental risks while maintaining efficiency.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model (13W): Ideal for small terrariums (≤30L) or pets with low UVB needs (e.g., tree frogs).
    • Advanced Model (26W): Suitable for medium to large tanks (50–100L) requiring balanced UVB and heat.
    • Pro Model: Best for high-demand species (e.g., desert reptiles) needing dual UVB intensity and rapid heat distribution.

With the Pro Model’s 6% UVB output, you can replicate natural sunlight for calcium metabolism. Pair its faster heat-up time with its glass durability to ensure a stable habitat for sensitive species.
