Lamp Saftey & Usage
Bird lamps remain UV-B potent (within 40% of total output) for one whole year of use.
This is based on using the correct controller and a maximum 12 hour a day photo period. Health concerns should always be reported to a suitable vet who can access the bird properly.
Do not allow birds long exposure to bird lamps at a distance closer than stipulated by the product.
Humans should remain 12” or more away from the lamp.
Lamps should be turned off before cage maintenance is carried out.
Bird lamps should not be sprayed with water directly.
To be sure of UV-B potency, replace bird lamps once yearly.

These gentle lamps are available in a range of lengths and can be used with our standard output T8 controllers or any quality wattage specific luminaire.
The T8 Arcadia Bird lamp is robust and adaptable. It can be easily fitted to banks of breeding cages or placed inside of indoor flights with ease. It can also be used to increase birdroom illumination, set natural day/night cycles and allow bird keepers to view their birds in the most natural way.
T8 bird lamps can be safely fitted to the bars of most breeding cages, they are gentle in nature and will allow full avian vision and the natural production of D3.
This technology is our benchmark, it is proven safe and effective and has a UV potency of one year of use.
