Using your Arcadia D3+ High Output HO T5 Fluorescent Reptile Lamp is easy. First, make sure your reptile enclosure is turned off and cool before installing the lamp. Simply place the lamp in a suitable fixture in the enclosure. It's important to position it at about 30cm from your reptile to get the best UVB and visible light output, but always check if it suits your specific reptile species. Remember, don't use any mesh or glass between the lamp and your reptile if possible, as this can block some of the UV rays. When it comes to maintenance, there's no need to replace starters as these T5 lamps use high - frequency ballasts. Just keep an eye on the lamp's performance. If you notice a significant decrease in light or UV output, it might be time to replace the bulb. Also, always handle the bulb with clean hands to avoid reducing its lifespan. Keep this lamp in a dry and clean environment to ensure it works well for a long time.
