Exo Terra just came out with what they call an extreme uvb bulb.Just seen it at Petco. Thoughts? I need someone with a meeter to check this new bulb.

Just went on their web site and they no longer call their bulbs a 5.0 or 10.0. Now they are 100,150,200. This is the new 200.If I understand the web site correctly they measure at 4" away from the bulb to get their numbers. Well that's not doable! Am I missing something here?

Correct, it looks like the bulb needs to be very close for high UVB readings.

I will say that spectrum chart, though shows a much wider UVB area than the spikiness of an MVB, so a direct UVB measurement comparison may not make sense between the two.

I think this is the first they've posted actual readings. I have a meter, but I just avoid their bulbs

2.0 - Full Spectrum - [discontinued]
5.0 - Tropical - UVB 100
10.0 - Desert - UVB 150
[new] - Intense - UVB 200
