Hi all
I have just ordered a couple of new spot bulbs and re read the UV Guide (if anyone hasn't read it http://www.uvguide.co.uk/index.htm there is the link).
When you consider a bulb is £50 and strip lights £20 it makes sense to use a solar meter. Does anyone have/use them?

I use one for checking my tubes, there not cheap so only worth getting if you are running a few tubes, does come in handy though as there seems to be quite a varied life on even the same lamps.

If you don't mind me asking, what sort of price are you talking about?

I think the Zoomed one goes for £250.
