Nice video ! As mentioned about the UV lighting , you really need a good device to measure how much UV is coming from the bulb . It is a shame that the best Uv meters are very expensive to the average hobbyist. I had a good one and I tested a lot of my bulbs . I had a brand new bulb that put out zero Uva ,Uvb light and I have had older bulbs put out a lot, even though they were much older ! This is where Josh Frogs can step in and make their own brand solar test meter and sell it at a price under ...say $ 100 .! You can not go by how old the bulb is and just think it is good or bad ! It needs to be tested with a good device !
