Morning, Midday or Beach sun for 20 base/starters?

as I am going through my relamp, I have two 20 minute starter beds, and would like some input on what you guys think I should re-lamp them with, morning, midday or beach suns??(had velocity in them)

I have level 2 15 minute beds I have relamped with desert suns (jury still out on them as less than 40 hours on them now), instead of velocity plus, but perhaps I should of used Equators

the 54 lamp Tanning booth, I have relamped with Signature series plus instead of the bronzing sun 160's

Advice is welcomed,

Re: Morning, Midday or Beach sun for 20 base/starters?

will the beach suns not make the base and the 2nd level beds to close together?
I mean the 2nd level beds have desert suns in them, beach is only one step down... what I am afraid of is that if both level 1 and 2 are two close together, whats the incentive to upgrade to a higher level??

and just curious of what you guys think of Sig Series plus in the standup... it was a toss up between the Sig series plus and putting beach sun 160's in there?

What beds are your level 1 & 2? Are they the same bed with different lamps? Does the level 2 have facials? Are there more lamps in the level 2?

is level 2 a 28 or 32 lamps bed? im thinking you might be better off making all the beds run at 15 minutes. are you regulated

Re: Morning, Midday or Beach sun for 20 base/starters?

So you have the bed w/ high pressure facials as a level 1? And the level 2 has no high pressure facials?

Re: Morning, Midday or Beach sun for 20 base/starters?

not regulated.... and level 2 is a combination of 28's and 32's... as I said just got here and sorting everything out... its a mess, and I will be changing out some of these beds in the fall... but I hear ya on the HP facials.... but I am having a little issue with the customers, for 5 years they have been misinformed, robbed and generally scammed.... baby steps my brothers and sisters... baby steps... telling them the level 1 is really a level 2 and a level 2 should be a level 1, right now is not going to make me popular.... ohh, and on their points system... they have been overpaying for 5 years... that wont win any awards.

Not wise to really screw with them now and tell them the truth... hehehe... but FYI, those perfect sun 28 2f's are metering out on solar 7.0 @ around 8.5 (30 minute te time) So the plan is to relamp, move them into a comfort zone where they get increased quality for their dollar, 6 - 10 months loyalty conversion, then replace and restructure the beds.

Now with all this in mind... good or bad, I moved the level 2 to desert suns (15 minutes and the standup to signature plus (10 minutes) and I want to relamp the perfect suns.
