Any info on these lamps? Who is the manufacturer? Are they any good?

John · 18th June 2007, 05:47 PM

New Technology is made by Lighttech in Hungary. They are a private label for UV Power who is the largest lamp distributor in Europe. They are sold in the US by UV World & a couple subs.

They have a pretty extensive line, many are good.

What models are you looking at?

" 'many' are good."
LOL I like the diplomatic way you put that.

I was considering the 100W 6.5 or 7.4 Independence Extreme or Extreme Plus for my base level 15 min. beds.

John · 20th June 2007, 12:52 PM

The 6.5 will be a decent 15 minute or strong 20.
The 7.5 will be a strong 15 minute.

Non reflector right?

1tan1 · 21st June 2007, 11:03 AM

Correct, non-reflector.

Meter those lamps.....the higher B lamps tend to be quite strong ...the strongest vhr is equal to about a 10% uvb lamp....over 40 on a 7.0 meter

stan@sunsys · 21st June 2007, 08:49 PM

Call me crazy, but that's crazy. Wonder how long they stay that high.

Drew · 21st June 2007, 09:17 PM

I used the second highest B level lamps and had a 38. Same number the Phillips swift 808's give me. They stayed up, Well, not THAT high for long....but that was something like 6.8 min tan time...and I got 400+ hours on them moving them from 10 mins max up to 12 mins when they 'cooled' off.

How was the UVA? What did the 5.0 readings do?

SOCALTAN · 25th June 2007, 05:48 PM

Thinking about putting the extrem 100w in my Tan America 20 min. bed. Are all of these lamps non-reflector? I think I need reflector lamps? Also what about lamps that are Bi-pin and putting the caps on to make them RDC?

John · 25th June 2007, 05:50 PM

They offer F73 RDC lamps in both reflector & non.

You need to be careful with what lamps you use in TA beds. Talk to John Aycock at UV World, he will know which ones to use.

SOCALTAN · 25th June 2007, 06:00 PM

The end caps for bi-pin to RDC are for 160W Extreme..... anyone use these before, did it work out ok?
