1 point drop is nothing....this is why we buy the meters. So that we don't replace lamps that still give strong output, regardless of how many hours are on it.

Do you also have the 7.0 meter? Check to make sure that it's giving off 4 meds in the proper session time.

Divide 240 by the number you get on your 7.0 meter will give you your session time. So if it's a 15min session time and the 7.0 meter reads 17 or 18 on it....that means they are achieving 4meds in a 13-14min session which is what it should be.

No reason to change lamps if they are still performing.

Salons that go by hours would have thrown out lamps by now and paid to relamp the bed to get the same results as keeping the old ones that were still good.

a 5.0 is useless without a 7.0 meter.
