This review is from: 300R/E27/ULTRA VITALUX OSRAM SUN LAMP MEDICAL TANNING BULB 300 WATTS UV BULB 230 VOLTS (Misc.)
I must apologize to Bulborama, I first wrote this review saying the bulb didnt work. Having a 300 watt lamp to put it in is not enough. This is designed for 220 volt power. And since houses in America are wired for 110 volt, you will need to convert your power to 220 volt and then plug in a compatible 220 volt lamp rated for 300 watts for it to work. They dont really spell all that out very well for the average person who doesnt know volts, amps, watts, ect. So I still dont like the product because of this, but I suppose if I were living in Europe where this bulb comes from, it would be alot less hassle as you would just need to screw it in your floor lamp and it would work just fine and I would probably like it then. I hope this saves someone else from the headache and wasted money it caused me. Bulborama will refund within 14 days if you send it back in the original box if you make what is apparently a very common mistake. Why cant somebody make a 110 version of this bulb???
