{"product_id":"exo-terra-t5-high-performance-uvb-fixture","title":"Exo Terra T5 High Performance UVB Fixture","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe fixture Exo Terra builds around its T5 VHO UVB bulbs. The highly polished reflector raises lamp output around 2.5 times, which is most of the reason to run T5 over T8 — a high-grade bulb in a poor reflector wastes a large part of what you paid for. The electronic ballast eliminates flicker completely, and the grounded plug carries protection against over-voltage, over-current, end-of-lamp-life and overheating. It is a UVB and light fixture, not a heat source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo sizes here: 8W at 35cm and 24W at 60cm.
