Ambition 300 Lamp life??

I have a question about the lamp life in the Ambition 300. Using the OEM lamps (Genesis VHP15 Turbo 160w on top, and Genesis VHP15 Plus 120w on bottom), what would you expect the max life to be? Would there be a difference between the life of top bulbs versus the life of the bottom bulbs? Anybody have experience with these bulbs in the Ambition 300? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Re: Ambition 300 Lamp life??

Just go 600 max & change the top & bottom at the same time. You may be able to squeeze more life out of the bench lamps, however it would not be wise to put fresh lamps in the top & leave 600 hr lamps in the bench. It won't make for a very even tan.

At 600 hrs you should have done over 2400 sessions in that unit. Even if you only charge $3.50 a session, that's $8400. A lamp change will cost you around $500 for that unit.
