Default Stand Up Booth Lamping

Is it feasible to put a 100w 12 min lamp in a 100w 15 min standup safely ? Particularly in the STS unit.

Was considering going with a high reflector such as the LSI Sig Series, or a 9k90.

How about every other lamping. High A, High B, High A ..... ?


I would assume since there's no direct contact, striping wouldn't be an issue. I would think it would be like double tanning. Boosting the melanin and browning it at the same time.

Striping would not be an issue due to distance from lamp panels to body in center of stand-up.

That depends on how many MED/hr the "new" arrangement puts out at body position (12.5cm from center of unit). If more than 4 MEDs in session time you need to cut back accordingly.

240 / MED.hr reading = Te time in minutes fyi. Welcome to Solartech

You say that like we all know what the MEDs are for every lamp.

That's understandable. What about every other lamping though, High UVA, UVB, UVA, UVB .... does that make sense ?
My thinking is, that with the distance, lamp rotation may give off a more fuller tan. Yes, No ?

Sorry - I don't know what the tanning results would be mixing/matching like that. Maybe "Din" or other owners who've tried it will answer this.
