Man I am going to have to look into all of this a bit further. I just dont think that a 5.0 bulb would do much in my set up due to how large it is. They are only good up to 12 inches and even then I am not so sure that with the cage size they would perch under it all day for proper UV levels. The folks at BIG APPLE HERP stand behind this bulb 100 percent and insist that it is superior to what is currently out there right now. All I can say is that a 5.0 bulb might be good for those people with smaller cages where the cham is going to be near it most of the time. In my set up they would basically need to to be directly under it and half the problem would be them finding that area. As it is now my chams seems to recognize when the mystic bulb comes on and moves his way slowly to it.
Like I said its on for 1 hour at a time 4 times a day. I watch him and he seems to be near it off and on so that is why I cycle it so he can catch it one of those times.
