UV output

I had a new client come in and ask how much UV each bed put out. How do you find out?

Your Rep should be able to tell you for new beds, you would need a meter for older lamps, from my understanding the output changes as the lamp ages.

You total uv output will decrease from the time you first start your unit. Are you asking the uv output of the lamp or the amount of UVA and UVB in the lamp?

Sarge, I am not sure. The client said, "By the way, what is the UV on the bed?"
Now seeing what you and TE have said, I feel it is good to know both.
Thanks

Elect, I like what you are saying. I think if I went with that, Her head would have spun right off.
