{"product_id":"exo-terra-repti-glo-5-0-tropical-t8-tube","title":"Exo Terra Repti Glo 5.0 Tropical T8 Tube","description":"\u003cp\u003eRepti Glo 5.0 is Exo Terra's older name for what it now sells as the Reptile UVB100 — the tropical tier of its linear UVB range, matched to the shaded rain forest light that tropical and sub-tropical species evolved under. Same tube, older packaging. It comes in one size here, 14W at 38cm, which is the short length missing from our main \u003ca href=\"\/products\/exo-terra-reptile-uvb100-t8-tube\"\u003eReptile UVB100 T8 range\u003c\/a\u003e. Like every UVB fluorescent tube it emits UVB and light but no meaningful heat, so a basking lamp is still needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e38cm is a short hood — measure the inside of your fixture before ordering, since a T8 tube only fits the length it was built for.
