Reptile Systems Compact Lamp Zone 2

The Reptile Systems Compact Lamp Zone 2 13w is a UVA and UVB compact fluorescent lamp built for reptiles and amphibians that sit within Ferguson Zone 2 — species that experience moderate ultraviolet exposure in the wild, such as those living in partial shade or at the edge of open sunlight. It delivers full-spectrum output in a straightforward, no-fuss format suited to keepers of all experience levels.

Ferguson Zone 2 Output

Zone 2 species require a measured UVB gradient rather than intense basking-level radiation. This lamp targets a UVI of around 2.0 at typical basking distances, replicating the dappled or shaded light conditions these animals would encounter naturally. That makes it a well-matched choice for arboreal species, partially shaded dwellers, and other moderate-UV reptiles.

Full-Spectrum Performance

Alongside UVB, the lamp produces UVA output and a full-spectrum light profile that supports natural behaviour, healthy appetite, and the vitamin D3 synthesis needed for effective calcium metabolism. Colour rendition is natural, which benefits both the animal's wellbeing and how your vivarium looks day to day.

Practical Fit for Smaller Enclosures

• E27 screw base — fits standard dome fixtures and compatible lamp holders without additional ballasts or controllers
• Compact form factor suits vivariums, terrariums, and dome-style setups where space is at a premium
• Plug-and-play installation — no specialist wiring or equipment required

The Reptile Systems Compact Lamp Zone 2 13w gives keepers of geckos, tree snakes, chameleons, and similarly classified species a reliable, correctly specced UVB source that removes the guesswork from lighting a Zone 2 vivarium.
