Two-Color Built-in Facial Lamps: Replace some or all of your upper canopy lamps with these two color lamps with a built-in facial. These lamps have varying amounts UVB (6.5% over the body in blue and slightly higher over the face in pink) for the body and face. Available in F71 only.
Reflector Lamps: UPGRADE YOUR BED with new reflector lamps. This is the same style lamp your local salon probably uses in their upgrade beds and higher end stand-up units, and are available in 100-watts for your home tanning bed or 100W commercial beds. A reflector is built into the back half of the lamp focusing all of the lamps tanning power toward your body. Because of the tanning power being focused you are able to get a deep bronze tan without high doses of UVB. A better tan with less damage to your skin. Once you try reflector lamps you will never want to use anything else.
How do I know which lamp is best for me?
Tanning lamps produce both UVA and UVB rays. The UVB% is simply the percentage of the lamp's total UV output that is UVB, but without knowing the total UV output of that lamp it can be misleading. It’s also important to note that a high UVB% does not mean a better lamp. In fact the opposite can be argued. To put it in simple terms the UVA rays react with the melanin in your skin which causes tanning. The UVB rays aid in producing melanin and can speed up and intensify the process, but it’s not as simples as more is better. UVB rays are also responsible for the damaging effects of sunlight including sunburn. A higher UVB percentage also means the lamp has a lower UVA percentage, and lamps with a very high UVB% (such as 9.0) can do more reddening than bronzing because so much of the UVA "tanning rays" have been depleted. The right mix depends on how well your skin tans and personal preference. All of the lamps listed above will give you a great bronze tan. They will just work at different speed and intensity. Always choose the right lamp for your skin type and avoid burning.
How do I know what length and connector type I need?
The length can usually be found as part of the model number on your old lamps (such as F71, T72, etc). The most common length is F71. This is the length although the lamp will actually measure slightly shorter than 71 inches. Other common lengths are F72 (usually found in older beds and stand-up units), F73 (usually found in some commercial beds), and F59 (usually found in beds with a facial, the shorter lamps below the facial). Check the connectors on the end of the lamps. They will be either bi-pin (two prongs similar to a standard fluorescent lamp) or RDC (flat black plastic piece, one of the sockets that hold the lamp will be spring loaded for removal). F59 and F71 are available in bi-pin only, and F72 and F73 are available in RDC only.
What wattage do I need?
Almost all residential beds and most standard commercial beds will be 100-watt. Shorter F59 lamps (usually found in beds with a facial) are 80-watt. Your lamps should have 100W or 80W somewhere on the lamp. Other wattages such as 120, or 160, etc do exist in some commercial applications, however this auction is for standard 100-watt and 80-watt lamps only. Other wattages are or will be available in our eBay store.
How long will the lamps last?
Tanning lamps usually come with a “rated life” from the factory of 1,000 or more hours (ours are rated at 1,100 hours). To be honest this is just a number and not realistic. If you contact any local tanning salon they will probably tell you that they have to replace lamps at around 700 hours to keep their customers happy. The lamp performance will begin to drop off over time and drop even more dramatically after 700 hours. We prefer to deal in “useful hours”. A more realistic expectation of how long you can expect your lamps to produce the tanning performance you desire. Our lamps have a “useful life” of 800 hours.
When should I replace the starters?
Most bed manufacturers will recommend replacing starters every other time you replace lamps, but since starters are inexpensive and easy to replace wile you have the bed apart to change the lamps you might want to consider it anytime you change lamps.
