Re: Who\'s white? I\'m white

You can messure how much Vit D output the bed is giving. It's for personal use mostly. I do have a few clients that came in to tan saying their Dr. sent them for Vit D normalcy.... so I can direct them to the bed that's putting out the optimal amount.

Re: Who\'s white? I\'m white

Yeah, they are "fun" but unless you change out your lamps for a different model/brand then the number doesn't move that much.

Speaking of which, I need to make a new Vitamin D info sheet for one of my beds.

That'll kill 15min at least

Re: Who\'s white? I\'m white

It is. You take the number you get from the meter and put it into a spread sheet. Then you get the entire range of what someone is likely to get in their tanning session.

So, the lamps supply a fixed amount of Vit D, yes?

Funny you ask. I have metered AUVL, LSI HPs, Cosmedico Goldariums and based on MED they all provide about the same Vitamin D within 10% of eachother and they are all pretty much different "technologies" of lamps.

About 8-9000IUs of vitamin D in 4MED.
