easy set up

This easy-to-use Kit can be fixed easily inside of a vivarium, rested upon a wire meshed glassed terrarium, hung above an enclosure or hung within (where safe to do so). Its sleek design and specially curved reflector will ensure that you take up less space but project as much light forward as possible.

ProT5 is ‘Small but mighty’

This is due to the type of reflector that is included. Easy to remove and clean, the reflector has 2 angles of reflection from each curve.

This means that it projects high levels of UV-rich light directly beneath unit at around 12”/30cm to create a basking zone but then light also spreads out over distance to provides a wide flood. This will allow you to create a suitable UV-B provision for any species and over a suitably wide area.
