is it all about Watts???

raphael · 10-26-2004, 10:26 PM

I am new here, and yes I did search some but didn't see what i needed. I have seen some tanning salons where the top tanning bed is about 500 watts, which will run you about 20 dollars for 15 mins. Then I have seen places that claim 22,000 watts for around the same price! Can this be possible, or are there other aspects of tannign bed power?

Spamm? Only two posts? Seconds later pictures pop up of new tanning beds? I guess I'm not thinking clearly... sorry.

I think this is what some salons do. I think they take the wattage of the lamps - multiply by the number of lamps to get a large number that soumds impressive. y x a = wattage. That is your lesson today. I have a high pressure standup it 16 HP 800w lamps and 1 800 watt facial lamp. That is over 14,000 watts - sounds more impressive that "we have an 800 watt HP unit". Although I would not call it 14,000 watts I can see where a less impressive salon would.
