Arcadia Bird 2.4% UV-B Tube - 8W T5 300mm

Official Mini Kit Replacement: Tailored specifically as the identical direct replacement globe for the Arcadia Bird PureSun Lamp Kit Mini - 8W lighting system.

High-Output T5 Technology: Generates up to twice the comprehensive light footprint of traditional T8 options, driving excellent brightness down into cages or breeding banks.

Vital Ultraviolet Delivery: Formulated to emit a stable 2.4% UV-B and 30% UV-A profile, replicating wild open-canopy light to aid metabolic wellness and bone density.

Flicker-Free Vision Protection: Delivers a clean, continuous current of full-spectrum light that eliminates the invisible ballast strobing known to cause severe avian eye fatigue.

Premium glass tube housing infused with German-engineered phosphors, built with standard low-resistance bi-pin end contact pins.

Ensure your main lighting unit or external controller is completely disconnected from the household power supply before proceeding. Remove any protective safety mesh grills or brackets. Carefully turn the expired T5 tube out of its sockets and remove it safely. Slide the bi-pins of the fresh 8W tube cleanly into the terminal slots, then twist it exactly 90 degrees until it locks into place. Wipe down the glass surface with a clean cloth to lift skin oils before reconnecting the power.

Supervise your pet during use. Never mount the fixture in a configuration that positions perches inside the mandatory minimum safety clearance zone. Human caretakers should stay at least 30cm away from the active light source during operation. Always disconnect the power switch before conducting any weekly enclosure maintenance, tray cleansing, or item adjustments. Do not spray, mist, or splash liquids directly onto an active or warm lamp tube. Replace this tube every 12 months to guarantee consistent biological UV-B potency.
