The Arcadia Reptile D3 UVFLOOD allows a keeper to provide high levels of visible light and UV over a wide targeted area. Due to our cutting edge dimpled reflector, light is emitted at 45 degrees from the fitting, allowing a keeper to set a pattern of light over a wide designated area. This provides a wide basking area for the animal to use whilst allowing the keeper to also provide areas of useful shade where required for a full and effective photogradient.

UVFLOOD is easily fitted into a vivarium by inserting 2 screws through the screw holes in the top of the reflector. UV flood has all of the benefits of High Output-T5 technology to provide high quality UV rich light.

UVFLOOD is also IP67 waterproof. The fitting can be attached to the optional stand which allows the safe and effective use of the product over tortoise tables.

The Arcadia Reptile UV flood uses state of the art electronics to provide a flicker free and highly energy efficient source of lighting.

Can be seated on mesh topped vivs to provide light in a sleek shallow designed fitting.
