Why? Cosmolux VHR lamps are way below average in uva and uvb.

they USED to be good back in the day.
Try Supras, or Signature SeriesHP for two of the best lamps in VHoR.
2meter lamps available in both.

You can have the spot where mine used to be. About six hits a month just weren't worth the renewal price. But I haven't been told not to spam meters anymore. I think only individual site owners like Bruce, Chun, Larry, Alan or Neon do that... not big companies like LF.

Drew: Spam away!

I am spamming for the competition too btw. I wouldn't ever say a good lamp is bad, or for that matter...a good bed is bad.

Luckily there are many bad lamps and bad beds out there to keep harping on.

My advice is to quit buying stuff without direct comparisons to other things. HP lamps, tube lamps, Beds etc.

And not just brand new..all lamps for the most part are pretty good new..and many HP beds are good BEFORE the glass solarizes but quite inadequate after.

buy 2 meters....ask smart questions. And don't listen to dumbasses who just tell you where to buy cosmosuck lamps when you shouldn't buy them at all.

I will talk to John from URI but I will take suggestions from anyone who can tell me what would be the best lamps to buy for my beds. I have 5 Heartland Ovations 154/3 - 12 Minute Beds with 160w on canopy and 100w on the bench. Also 2M Booth from Heartland. I have used cosmolux but if there is better lamp for these beds I would like to know about it before I order any next week.

We did use the Rave before but my customers were not impressed with the tanning results including my workers. We didn't get as dark with the Rave lamps as we did the Cosmo.

When I first bought my Heartland Beds in 04 they came with Cosmolux 160w in the canopy and Hi Tan 100w in the bench. My 2M booth had 2M 9k90. When I had to relamp Heartland told me that had the Rave lamps. I bought them thinking they would be better but I didn't get as much color. Now I would really like to find the best lamps for my beds.

I really wanted to change them at 600hrs but waited until 700hrs. I will make a decision by next week about if I will go with Cosmolux again or another type.
