Actually emits UVA/B (good stuff) and doesn't detect UVC (harmful wavelengths), which is great. LEDs have come a long way, although UV only penetrates a short distance. Also, the surface of the piston only reached 91°F, so shouldn't pose a burn hazard; However, this means that most species require a separate heat source. Measurements were taken after the light was left on for 15 minutes to warm up and get an accurate reading. See attached photos for µW/cm² measurements made with the 6.2 solar meter. At 2": reading 46 µW/cm² At 3": reading 24 µW/cm² At 4": reading 14 µW/cm² I don't think this lamp provides enough UV for desert reptiles, they work best at 30 - 150µW/cm² and the animal is unlikely to be within 2" of the lamp for a decent amount of time. For adequate D3 metabolism, this would be sufficient if the heating area was about 3-4" below the surface of the bulb Make sure the distance is to the animal and not to the bathing area itself, too much UV radiation can damage the eyes harm or irritate.
