Rach,
if you want a bulb now, go for the t Rex active uv heat 100w. I've beenrunnimg one for a few weeks and it's fine and putting out very acceptable levels of UVB without major degredation. I really hope the new 100w megaray calms the waters a bit and it has stability and a good UVB life as I still think they are the best mvb I've used in terms of what a tortoise gets out of it.
I think what would be of use are some operational parameters from the manufacturer. These are supplied with most domestic electrical items and it would be useful to have recommendations in terms of suitable fittings, ambient temperatures, storage of the bulb when not in use, etc etc. Information that may lengthen the life expectancy of the bulb.
