Question Need opinion on this light/uvb product?

Hey I need your guy's opinion, have you heard of the Reptisun 10 compact fluorescent light? I hear they are bad and can cause snowblindness. Whats your experience/opinion on them because I have already bought them.

I can try to point the light horizontally or kinda diagonally.

Thanks Guys!

I have not used the compact florescents, but I have been using the Reptisun 10.0 florescent tubes for many years and I believe them to be the best available. I'm pretty sure the compacts are the same technology, just in a different shape, so I don't see why they would have any bad effects on your dragons...
You have to be careful about what you read on this, or any, online forum, as alot of the information out there is just something that someone heard from someone else, etc., often with zero credibility...get other opinions from people who have been breeding dragons for a long time. Many people will claim to be "experts", but we are all still learning...

I prefer the zoo med 10.0 tubes, have used the reptisun 10.0 in the past with good results. read an article or 2 on compacts that were rather negative about them. I will stick with the old tried and true tubes for now.

Thanks guys! I will be trading in my lights and fixtures for store credit. Walmart t8 fixture $9 and reptisun 10.0 tube $50.

Check around on that tube price, that's high.
