We should combine this into one thread since it became a Magic thread, or start a new one discussing the pros and cons of HP on the market

Brian Oshman · 13th August 2007, 04:53 PM

It is fine the way it is.

John · 13th August 2007, 05:02 PM

They could also purchase standard sockets for about $16.00 each, then relamp with the exact same lamp from Heraeus for about 1/2 the cost.

BIG AL · 13th August 2007, 05:57 PM

So John if you were going to buy a HP bed, which one would you choose?

John · 14th August 2007, 09:21 AM

Depends on what the competition had & the rest of the mix in my salon. They all have pros & cons.

Some have higher UVB
Some have tons of UVA
Some have a nice balance of both
Some have great looks
Some suck......

I would have to admit that it would be either the Magic 636, ISO Italia Matrix ER or the Mastersun 360.

If I was looking for more UVB, faster more immediate results, I would definitely look into the 1050 & the Leonardo.

I certainly would lean towards purchasing an Italian made unit.

BIG AL · 14th August 2007, 05:16 PM

I think you could do well with any of your top three.
I don't like a high uvb in a HP bed. I think it defeats the advantages
of high pressure.

KoolTanz · 14th August 2007, 05:59 PM

I would like to see a poll about which sunless unit is the best....

solarmeter® · 14th August 2007, 06:38 PM

They all suck. Go hangout on the sunless forum... the vitamin d-less forum... the skin staining forum. Ugh.

Yeah, phuck that sticky, nasty $h!t!

John · 15th August 2007, 08:36 AM

how about a poll on which Sunless company promoted the most negative press of UV tanning.........

phattmatt · 15th August 2007, 11:20 AM

Apology please, from the one that stated the following BS:

I know that, so post a pic of a meter reading at the bench of what that Boat Anchor® is lacking.

Probably puts out high 50's, low 60's. High B cooker. Toy.

Hey Matt... a couple years ago you actually posted a set of Tanses meter readings. What were they? I forgot. They weren't "bad" as I recall. Don't remember if they were LP or HP.

Any Pics?

phattmatt · 15th August 2007, 12:25 PM

1994 Entropy 360 readings for top lamps:

5.0 solarmeter = 109
6.0 solarmeter = 1.36
7.0 solarmeter = 21.1

No pictures, just a notebook full of meter readings on tons of lamps over the years.

solarmeter® · 15th August 2007, 01:02 PM

Not bad! Not bad at all.

Plenty of UVA.
1.25% UVB
11.4 minutes to 4 MEDs Te

I don't think that would cook a deer © any more faster than a 636 or whatever else have you.... except maybe an original BlackSun HP. Certainly not a boat anchor ® imo.

I agree, those are good numbers for that.
