Reptile Systems New Dawn LED - Vertical Position

The Reptile Systems New Dawn LED is a specialist plant growth bulb designed for bioactive vivariums and planted terrariums where strong, targeted light output is essential. Available in a range of wattages to suit enclosures of different scale, these E27-fitting LEDs deliver a true 6500K daylight spectrum — the colour temperature at which live plants photosynthesise most effectively.

Daylight Spectrum for Real Plant Growth

Running at 6500 Kelvin, the New Dawn LED produces light at the wavelengths plants actually use, rather than simply appearing bright. A Colour Rendering Index of over 90 means colours read accurately under these bulbs — important both for plant health monitoring and for how your animals and décor look in the enclosure.

High Output, Focused Beam

The New Dawn range is built around delivering meaningful light levels rather than just adequate ones. A 40-degree beam angle concentrates output where it is needed, making these bulbs particularly effective at penetrating dense canopy or reaching the floor of a deep vivarium.

Designed to Work Alongside UVB

These bulbs are not intended to replace UVB — they complement it. Pairing a New Dawn LED with a UVB-emitting lamp gives keepers control over both the biological and visual light environment, supporting plant growth without compromising the UVB provision your animals require.

Choosing the Right Option for Your Setup

The New Dawn LED is available in several output levels, allowing you to match the bulb to the footprint and planting density of your enclosure. All variants use a standard E27 fitting and are mounted in a vertical position. Select your preferred wattage from the options above to suit your specific vivarium.
