Bottom line is this 160W unit will tan like a 15 minute 100W bed because of all the UVB. 5+% uvb on a 160W bed is a COOKER.

Don't forget the original beauty of a true 160W unit is that you can get a bed with outputs in the 50+ range and only 2-3% uvb in relation to total output. A bed metering in the 80"s with 5% uvb is just crazy. Does not give the skin time to tan out. It is a scorcher for sure. A redder color like a 15 minute 100W bed that will fade quicker.

In this case a shorter session time IS NOT better. Just my opinion but what the **** do I know.

The beauty of a TRUE 160E unit is that it is more browning and you can go longer between sessions. Should only need 4-5 sessions a month. This is not the case with this set up.

Good option if you are just trying to crank customers through.
