sheshinez · 10-27-2006, 07:07 PM

HELP! I have an OLDER tanning Bed...SUNBURST 1600 by SUNAL, I NEED TO FIND BULBS!!??Everywhere I look they are new updated bulbs.. and this bed is I believe 10-15 yrs old. Is there any way to find/purchase a newer brand/type bulb that will still work properly with my bed?
HOW DO I KNOW WHAT IS COMPATIBLE?
Its a 16 Bulb Bed
It says the compatible BULBS to use are:
COSMOLUX CA1/A1 etc. OR PHILIPS S etc.
SOMEONE HELP!!
CAN I USE MODERN BULBS????? MADE FOR THE WOLFF BED?? HOW DO I COMPARE?
SUNAL is no longer in business. :(
THANX! Andrea

20 or 30 minute unit?

30 minute unit. It has a wind around timer on the outer side of the bed. Does that help?
Its a GREAT BED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION but I just bought it on ebay and I just want newer faster bulbs...30 minutes drives me nuts in there...at the Salon I was used to 12minute high intensity beds and tanned much faster and it showed almost immediatly with a 12 minute bed! ??
CAN I UPGRADE BULBS WITH THIS BED TO LESS TIME/GOLDEN TAN type BULBS??

Did you ask the previous owner about the bulbs?

Any good 100 watt will light in the bed, but getting compatability to the original and to make it 12 minutes is not going to happen. Now if you are not worried about compatablity then go with the advantage max or the philips advantage 808-R. Both will bring you to a 10-12 minute time, also remember to change the starters.
lamps can be found like this in the 9.00 range
