Rep Power: 22 bsmart will become famous soon enough
Over on the 'other' tanning website, there was talk at one time about a lamp called the 'Drew' lamp. It was AKA the UV Lighthouse lamp. What was this lamp, what were its components of UVA and UVB mix, who made it, and what was its expected life in hours? Anybody remember that discussion, or have any feedback on this lamp??

While you pick up the "Drew" Lamps, you can get also find out about the "Drew" Sunsport, The "Drew" Leg Tanner and the "Drew" Chronos!!!

Everything else is just plain GARBAGE or "fry your buns, face, insert your favorite part here"

The way I understand it, they had a lamp that wasn't actually compatible, but gave great results, called a Drew lamp. Drew's buddies made a deal to Private Label a lamp made by Hereaus and called it a Drew lamp, after Drew had spammed and hyped this other lamp.

People asking for the original Drew lamp were sent the PL instead of what they ordered, and the burnout rate was really high. Bait and switch, and there were some PO'd people, as well as moderators who got nailed by these slick operators. Since moderators/vendorators were involved, they kept a lid on it for a long time, until it just blew up. We broke the story and exposed this bs for what it was.

Dealing with those guys, you really want to be careful, as they have a real long history. Personally, I'd never ever buy even a single lamp from anyone that Drew was involved with. I only buy stuff from people or vendors with integrity.

The whole story is on my website. In the Lamps and equipment forum, do a search on "Drew." Doing a seach on the word scam will give too many results.
