This spiral E27 bulb is intended for keepers of desert and semi-desert reptiles that are active during the day. It supplies both UVA and a high share of UVB (10%), which are the two spectral ranges these animals receive in the wild, where dry air, no cloud cover and sparse vegetation let through a strong dose of radiation.
Why it matters
- The UVB output of 10% supports the processes the supplier links to UVB exposure: appetite, digestion and reproduction.
- UVB drives vitamin D3 synthesis, which the supplier connects with proper calcium absorption, a key point for reptiles kept indoors.
- The UVA component of 30% is included alongside UVB in a single bulb, so no separate lamp is needed for these two ranges.
- The stated effective range is up to 50 cm, which defines how close the basking spot must be to the bulb.

What it works with
The bulb is designed for bearded dragons, dwarf bearded dragons, Greek tortoises, steppe tortoises, leopard tortoises, adult Yemen chameleons and other diurnal desert reptiles. Place it so that no glass or plastic lies between the lamp and the animal, since these materials filter out UVB, and make sure the animal cannot sit directly against the bulb.
