It also will kick *** while looking IMO better than any other bed available in North America.

There is no way that Ergoline has any clue on UV geometry. Who the heck in their right mind would decide to put air flows in the MIDDLE OF THE CANOPY!!!...... now for you people who believes this makes no difference, I don't want to hear it. It does affect the out put and readings of the unit in the middle of the body where the meter is usually pointed, that's why as i move my meter on my Affinity it actually reads higher by about 8 - 10 points on the sides.

That idea with the auto-regulating e-ballasts is just what sun capsule did with their 1.8 meter lamps.... they are trying to **** you so you can only buy lamps from them. (just more proof that nobody is making any money anymore) I also heard that the owner of the bed has no control over the increase in wattage to the lamps, it has to be done by someone else through JK or Ergoline. (maybe just a rumour, someone please clarify)

As far as looks, hands down this one is a BIG winner, they are just unbelievable with the designs of their equipment. I wish for an Ergoline that tans like a Gate ;)

The facials are around 2.5 - 3.0 UVB already with the new Affinity reflectors and glass, do they really need to come out with those stupid spagghetti facials?? Are we not trying to tan people??

Why can't someone come out with bed that actually uses 2 m lamps on the base so they are true 200 watt lamps and not always being over driven. I think enough of us salon owner are FU***** fed up with this marketing B.S. and spending ridiculous money per year on lamps that is totally not necessary. Just another way to dump more money into someone elses pockets.
