The degree at the top indicates the beam angle of the light source. This starts from the point in the centre directly below the lamp (100% brightness) and ends towards the edge when 50% brightness is reached.
The distances and radius of the light cone are shown on the left of the image. The information on the right of the graphic (temperature in degrees Celsius, brightness in lux and UV radiation in µW/cm2) refers to the respective distances on the left of the image.
You can use the radius to estimate whether your animal will fit under the light cone.
The green zone indicates the ideal distance from the light source. What is ideal at this point can vary slightly depending on the animal species. Brightness, temperature and UV radiation decrease with increasing distance.

UV light is vital for reptiles: it controls the metabolism, ensures healthy vitamin D3 synthesis and significantly influences the animals' behaviour. This natural radiation is often lacking in terrariums in particular - species-appropriate keeping is not possible with conventional lamps alone.
The solution: high-quality metal halide lamps such as the Bright Sun from Lucky Reptile. Thanks to special technology, they produce intense, sun-like light with a perfectly balanced UV-A and UV-B component - just like in nature. They are extremely energy-efficient and convert a large proportion of the energy into visible light while generating very little heat.
The combination of UV radiation, heat and near-natural light colour not only provides the animals with optimum care - plants also thrive magnificently. With the Bright Sun series, you can create an authentic sunny ambience in the terrarium that visibly improves the quality of life.
Whether for desert dwellers or tropical species - the Bright Sun range offers the right model for every habitat.
