meter reading

Does anyone know about what my bed should read? I have a diva 7, it has 54 160w 9k90 bulbs in it. The last time i rebulbed it it was reading around 80 this time only 60. Any similar bulb configuration should help.

Re: meter reading

If you are metering on the first run, forgetaboutit. I've seen numbers from 40-80 on the 5.0. Only good for pushing in people's faces on line but not realistic.

Re: meter reading

high 70's here - wait about 50hrs then use to meter - that's a long time to wait at 9 min max tan time.

Re: meter reading

I think running a 9k90 for a 9 min tan time is not suitable. I like that lamp in a 12-15 minute session. You should consider going with something more aggressive.

Cosemedico VHR HI-Tan or the Light source Signature Series HP has a bit more UVB than the 9k90.

Don't get me wrong the 9k90 is an excellent lamp. We love em!
