Zoo Med ReptiSun T8 5.0 UVB Lamp, 15 Watts

Zoo Med ReptiSun 5.0 in a 15 watt T8 tube, the lower-output sibling of the ReptiSun 10.0 lamps in this guide. The listing describes a 5% UVB output and a bulb made in Germany.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + 5.0 rating gives a lower UVB output than the 10.0 tubes here, for setups that call for less
  • + 15 watt T8 format for standard T8 fixtures of the matching length
  • + Described as a high quality bulb made in Germany, from the same ReptiSun line as the other picks

Trade-offs

  • - The manufacturer does not state the tube length, so confirm it matches your fixture before ordering
  • - 5.0 output is not a like-for-like swap for a 10.0 lamp, so check what your species needs first
