Vita-Lite 48" Fluorescent Tubes are the best way to provide glare-free, full-spectrum lighting for your bird room room or breeding environment.
Note: Generally speaking, birds receive maximum benefit from a full-spectrum light souce when placed overhead 12" to 24" above them for 8-10 hours daily.

        32-watt

• 6-bulb Pack
• 32-watt full-spectrum bi-pin fluorescent tube (15% brighter and more energy efficient that 40-watt tubes)
• Requires a 2-bulb T8 fixture for 32-watt bi-pin tubes.  If you do not have a fixture they can be purchased inexpensively at your local hardware store, Home Depot, Lowes  
• 24,000-hour bulb ... means fewer replacements.  Recommended ideal bulb change out time-period for birds is every 6 months.  Bulb will still be effective for other uses.  
• Note:  The 32-watt bulbs are replacing 40-watt bulbs, so if you have not yet purchased fixtures for your tubes we suggest the purchase of 32-watt tubes and fixtures.  The 32-watt tube requires a T8 fixture.  If you currently have 40-watt fixtures the 40-watt tubes are available here.
