Cn you buy these? Instead of tubes a UVB that has a bayonet fitting for a normal light bulb connection?

i think somone on here had one the other day hang on ill find the page for you

positioning

theres this page but its a screw in fitting,u could always buy the little converter though

I'm pretty sure they are all screw fit. I've not heard of a BC version as of yet - and I would have seen it if it was available. You can use those converter things, but they are made of plastic

Most of them are American made, or made for the American market, and are therefore Edison Screw as they don't use bayonet fittings. I can't think of any that are bayonet fit, can you not use a screw fit?

yeh.. they are either american or german made and america and germany (and as far as im aware everywher ebut the sodding uk) use Edison Screw! We just had to be difficult and use a inferior fitting to everyone else :p

We just use a £2.99 bayonet to screw converter for them if we have to, but it's also fairly cheap to buy the whole fitting and switch to screw and will be more safe/secure. All the reptile lines of bulbs like exo terra/zoo med are screw as well

We use a fairly heavy duty [rated at 250watt] screw in fitting for MVB's.
I dont know what the converters are rated to but the bayonett fitting holders we use are only rated at 100watt so they are no good holding the mvb's anyway.

these fittings are awesome

erm....free care sheet with all buys? jk
erm... ill have a spliff with you if you give me moneies? layaway available? :P

The converters I use are only rated to 100w.. but the compact uvb I use is only 20w.. never used a bigger one.. would definitely recommend using a whole secure fitting for anything over 100w.

Plastic converters (never seen any other kind) are fine for use with compacts as they don't get very hot, using one for a MVB of any wattage would be asking for trouble though, very dangerous.
