- Power: The stated rating is 24W. Compare that with the lighting setup you want to use.

Using It in Practice
The kit is aimed at reptile enclosures where UVB and UVA lighting are part of the setup. The detachable cord with switch gives a simple way to control the lamp, while the supplied connector supports linked units where required.
Before fitting the tube, remove the blue film from the reflector slowly so the reflective surface is not damaged.
Before You Decide
Confirm the 24IN tube length, 24W power rating and the way you plan to mount the fixture. If you want linked lamps, check that the included connector and your overall setup match the arrangement you need.
