Thanks for replying Terrypin, I belong to your forum btw.
1. I thought more or less the same, I used to use a arcadia 100watt combi and that gave a warm enough basking area.
2.
3. Hmm I didn't think of this. I thought if the 2 bulbs were close together an ideal position could be found by the tortoise to provide heat and UV. But I wasn't sure how close together the bulbs could be.

Terrypin Personally I prefer to have a uvb combi lamp at one end and a uv fluorescent light positioned over the length of the table for when they arent basking since I do turn my combi off for at least half of the day.

Perhaps it's best to go back to using a combi bulb, then I know my bulb holder will be ok. I could also use my D3+UV flood 24watt a little further along the table.
Thank you for your comments, you have given me a bit more to think about
