Mini UVB 3.0 Basking Lamps provide a combination of heat, visible light and UVB for reptile enclosures. Their compact design makes them particularly useful for smaller setups where a combined basking and UVB source is required.
The lamp provides a localised basking area while supplying UVB as part of a suitable reptile lighting setup. UVB plays an important role in vitamin D3 synthesis and calcium metabolism in many reptiles, making appropriate UVB exposure an important consideration when designing an enclosure.
The correct distance between the lamp and basking area depends on the specific lamp, enclosure and species. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended distance and use appropriate temperature and UVB monitoring where possible. Provide shaded and cooler areas so your reptile can regulate its exposure.
For best results, use the lamp with a compatible fitting and position it according to the requirements of the species being kept.
