Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

I've tried Sol Glass. At first they were good. Now that the B has dropped I get nothing but complaints. I'm done arguing that subject. I need to make a move at 250 hours on them. Hopefully I can make them work in a 140w 15 min. session.

I need to do something to please my serious tanners.

I've tried these in the past:
Philips Adv ( Best so far, although would like more uva)
Philips Adv 808 ( scorchers, not bad to have one of these beds around, but not my top level)

Cosmo VHR ( Alright, not aggressive enough)

What about these?

VHRTT ( worries me b/c it is compatible to Ergo VHP 15 which is a 15 min. lamp according to Wolff website)

Bronzing Sun Plus
Sig Series Plus
Heraues 23/160

Any other thoughts or suggestions?

Re: Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

VhrTT is NOT a 15min session. Ergoline is retarded at best when it comes to sticking to conventional ballast setups and lamp choises. Funny my comp has one of these things and NO ONE gets any color from it. Just burnt to death. One girl claimed she was tanning in it 3 times a week and she had almost no color.

Anywho I'd probably give the TTs a shot. They hold up real well and have gotten good results from them up to 700-800hrs before tossing them.

Re: Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

Is the Wolff original Sun Flagship R plus really the same lamp? They have an ad in Island sun times saying that. .

If it is, and it is cheaper, I'll try it. If not I have to try the TT's.

I was just concerned that the disguised 140 W ballast wouldn't be enough combined with the high canopy.

My next big bed will def be future or UWE.

Re: Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

im also looking for lamps in this same category for my heartland 164/4. so im very interested in this topic. problem i have is i have a 220 watt supersonic(220 hp lamps)as a level 4 and a 200 watt bermuda triangle(9k90)as the same level as the bed level 3. so i need to keep this bed strong but not too strong. im debating putting the 9k90 in it because they are in the bermuda triangle and its the same package but different wattage.

Re: Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

watch out for that original sun... I was about to buy them and then I learned that they have the internal mount structure of a 100w lamp. He was selling based on compatible, not comparable. Buyer beware...

The lamp I got from global sunlight is a VHP10 lamp that is made by Cosmedico. They told me it is even stronger than the TT and boy oh boy is it ever. My customers are lovin' it.

Re: Relamp Ergo 800 12 min. suggestions

If you want to stick with a new era type lamp then give the Phillips Swift HP a try. This is a strong New Era lamp with about 3.4% uvb.

If you want to stay away from this type of lamp then go Hereaus 20/160 in the bench and 23/160 in the canopy. The VHRTT come in at about 3.1%uvb while the 20/160 is 3.4% and 23/160 is 3.9%.
