You can only cast one vote so make it count.
Help me if I missed one

Let me say again. ISO (TA) will have the best looking one.

Sportaredo will have the circus looking one.

Tansees will have the Shop Class looking one

Miracle Sun will have the Utilitarian looking one

Etc Etc......

I would like to point out, that the Saturn has real 240 watt ballasts and it needs to be driven over 240 for the correct results. I have 2 and both are under 240 and give a good, 12 min tan. Had them both for 2 years and happy.

BUT, driven at 240+ This machine is a SMOKER. Patryks runs at 252 and is only 10 mins and still can cook you.

Check your Saturn voltage...24/48 buck boosters on 48 OR, call Pat as he has a transformer for the bump up similar to a small magic or UB transformer.

Has anyone tried the Ultrabronze standup that was dispalyaed at Nashville? Looked nice.

The Ultrabronz standup is a great unit. It's quicker than the 950 with the same great results. Only problem is the body cooling system, not very strong.

Nobody mentioned the HT high pressure booth??

Tanses Entropy - 35

Single Stage Filters allow more UV light to reach the customer
Dichoric Glass Reflectors increase UV intensity while decreasing the infared

All this allows you to run a 500W lamp for lower lamp cost with a output of about 3 times that.

Not to mention the looks are spectacular and the design allows for a 30 min full clean and relamp

Natureboy · 15th August 2006, 03:06 PM

I still think the Stand up Magic with Mug 6 would be the bomb. Too bad it's really not offered (officially) in North America.

Why is that?

Is this the same setup as in the Entropy 360 lay-down ???

Has this been changed, or not, since that bed first came out ???

My guess is because they push the Saturn here. Al from Miracle Sun did address it a while ago.

You're right on that one, Natureboy. The Magic Vertical has not been introduced to the U.S. market. It is offered in different versions in Europe. Sun Italia considered importing the 6 Column Magic Vertical, but it retails for around $41,000. The Saturn, because of its tanning performance, and lower cost, was a better fit here in the U.S.

That being said, if anybody wants a Magic Vertical, it can definitely be arranged

Entropy 35 Standup and Entropy 360 Laydown do share the same design and both use Single Stage Filters and Glass parabolic reflectors. Nothing has changed.

Entropy 360 Laydown used 1000W lamps on top driven to 700watts and 500W on bottom

This sounds like a high B cooker. Underdriving the lamp by 50%, Dumb.

MARVIN · 17th August 2006, 10:52 AM

What is the purpose of putting a 1,000 watt lamp in and driving it to 700 watts. Why underpower something?

uv2021 · 17th August 2006, 01:04 PM

Perhaps to extend lamp life? To compensate for inadequate cooling?I hear those beds run HOT. Never tried one though,this comes from a client who lives 1200 km's away and uses it because it is the only hp in his town.
