BED BULBS - tanTALK

homebeach · 04-27-2006, 05:48 PM

GOT A QUETION FOR ANYONE WITH ETS BEDS .
WE`RE JUST AT THE STAGE OF CHANGING OUR BULBS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
IS IT BETTER TO BUY THE SAME BULBS FROM ETS , OR ARE WE BETTER GOING TO ONE OF THESE WHOLESALERS WHO SELL BULBS ?
ALSO , I WOULDN`T KNOW WHICH TYPE TO ACTUALLY BUY.
HOW DO I KNOW WHICH NAME BRAND IS BEST ?
IF I CHANGE NAME BRANDS , WILL THEY POSSIBLY SCREW ANYTHING UP , BEING TOO HOT , OR NOT HOT ENOUGH?

Doesn't your tanning supply distributor carry bulbs/lamps/sticks/bright tanny things? If you have a local guy, you can save on freight and breakage.
As long as you stick with the same lamp type (number on the end of the tube) it will work. Many opinions as to which is better / best / sucks.

BTW, technically the bright things are called 'lamps', and the thing the bright things go into are call 'luminaires', but no one ever calls them that. Re: National Electrical Manufacturers Assosiation (NEMA)

Customer at Home Depot: "Where are your luminaires?"

18 year old 'lighting specialist': "Huh?"

I have to say this is the third time we have gone on this site and had a smart answer instead of the answer we need. We come on here for help, not to be corrected on everything. We may not be computer savy or use the "correct" words...but I thinkeveryone understands our question.. what are the best bulbs (lamps)and correct bulbs..lamps.
