SunBlaster T5 High Output Fluorescent Strip Light, 3-Feet, natural

I use these in both of my bearded dragon's tanks to provide UVB. These are cheap and effective, and come with reflectors and without the unnecessary bells and whistles and extra expense of many "hobby" brands.These work well with ReptiSun T5 UVB, and come with two different types of mounts for any tank situation you may need. I've had many issues with Zilla/ZooMed lamps, but these are excellent and I have had no issues whatsoever!

The Sunblaster T5 fixtures are absolutely better than any other fixture I have used for T5 desert reptile bulbs! No annoying buzz, sturdy and very light so hang easily with no worries that they may fall and injure my bearded dragons. Price is very good considering the great quality of these fixtures. Just wish they would sell them without the bulbs!

Bought this as a holder for my UVB bulb for my bearded dragon but it wasn't powerful enough to light the bulb bright enough all the way through. There was a dull section in the middle that wouldn't have worked for a beardie. I instead put the original bulb in and am using it as a plant light in my snake enclosure, and it works well for that.

Update: I have had this running for 11 months in conjunction with some red/blue LEDs to grow rare hot peppers indoors. I am happy to say that it has been more than sufficient to grow my plants and I have harvested dozens and dozens of peppers in the last 6 months.Ballast plus light, also comes with hooks to hang from chains (no chains included) and also comes with the daisy chain wire so you can hook multiple ballasts together and use only 1 plug. Using this to start hot pepper seeds (pequin, scorpion, habanero) but you will need a bigger ballast if you want things to fruit. I believe there is a 4 or 5 light ballast sunblaster. If you have the space, I suggest getting that. This is the perfect size for my needs!

It said it didn't come with a cord and it was a great deal so I ordered it knowing that I had another one and I had extra bulbs for it cuz I didn't need the 6500k bulb which I have extra of too. So when I plugged it in and the light didn't come on I was like all right maybe the bulbs broken I'm not even worried about that because again I didn't need that book I put in another $6,500k bulb again not the bowl that I needed just wanted to make sure that it was the same exact fold that it came with so I would know if something was faulty and where this said fault would lie. But come to find out the whole damn light doesn't work. Nothing on this light works. Honestly I don't feel why I should have to waste my time returning it waiting for another one maybe from the same company in the same problem happening. If I hear back from the company maybe I'll do something but I'm really disappointed honestly and I kind of needed it on time sensitive thing really disappointed

I got this to use with a Reptisun bulb for my bearded dragon. I was looking for a cheaper alternative fixture. It technically works, but the UVB output was inadequate, despite having the correct bulb at the correct distance. If you are going bioactive, you could use this as a grow light for the plants. Don't rely on it as a reptile UVB fixture, even with the correct reptile UVB bulb.

Easy to install, very bright, very lightweight. Plants are doing well so far.

It lit up our whole terrarium very well and makes it so much easier to see in and helps the plants stay alive.
