This bulb is intended for owners of reptiles kept in desert or semi-desert terrariums who want heat and UV from one light source. Instead of separate heating and UV lamps, the SuperSun delivers basking heat, infrared, and UVA/UVB radiation from a single E27 socket.
Why it matters
- Combined output: The bulb emits heat, daylight-spectrum light, infrared, and UVB/UVA radiation, so one fitting covers several lighting functions.
- Simple installation: No ballast is required. It fits a standard E27 socket on 230 V mains.
- Higher mounting possible: According to the manufacturer, the strong UVB emission allows the lamp to be mounted higher above the enclosure while still reaching the animal.
- Measured heat gradient: The rated heat output falls from 38 °C at 30 cm to 23 °C at 90 cm, allowing the animal to choose its own temperature zone.

What it works with
The lamp is suited to desert and semi-desert setups where a basking zone and UV exposure are needed. The UV values drop sharply with distance, so mounting height should be chosen according to the species and the irradiance figures above. The bulb must not be used with dimmers or other voltage-modulating devices, but it can be controlled by an electronic timer.
