SunLux LED PRO 24W

SunLux LED PRO 24W – Powerful LED panel for terrariums and vivariums

SunLux LED PRO 24W is a powerful LED fixture designed for intensive lighting of terrariums and other vivariums. With 108 LED chips arranged in three rows, integrated reflector and effective passive cooling, it provides bright and uniform daylight, which is important for the natural activity of diurnal reptiles and healthy growth of live plants.

The fixture offers light output of 3500 lumens, color temperature of 6480 K and color rendering index of Ra ≥ 84. This creates intense white lighting reminiscent of natural daylight and enables accurate color perception of plants and kept animals.

Compact design, quality construction and the ability to connect with compatible fixtures from SunLux, Arcadia or Reptile Systems brands make this LED panel a practical solution for modern terrarium lighting.

Intensive daylight for reptiles and plants

For many diurnal reptile species, sufficient intensity of visible light is an important part of the natural environment. It affects their daily activity, orientation, food seeking and other manifestations of natural behavior.

SunLux LED PRO 24W provides intensive daylight, which can be used as the basis for the overall light system of a terrarium.

Another advantage is the spectral composition of light suitable for growing live plants. The LED panel offers good representation of radiation used during photosynthesis (PAR/PUR), and can thus contribute to their healthy growth.

The fixture is therefore suitable not only for classic terrariums, but also for planted vivariums, paludariums and other tanks with live vegetation.

Who is this fixture suitable for?

SunLux LED PRO 24W will find use especially in terrariums for diurnal reptile species that need plenty of visible light.

It may be suitable for example for terrariums with:

• Chameleons

• Day geckos of the genus Phelsuma

• Anoles

• Agamas and other diurnal lizards

• Other reptiles with high lighting intensity requirements

• Live tropical and subtropical plants

Specific suitability depends on the dimensions of the terrarium, required lighting intensity and the needs of the kept species.

Main advantages

• Powerful LED panel: Power consumption of 24 W and light output of 3500 lm provide intensive lighting.

• 108 LED chips in three rows: More uniform distribution of light across the illuminated area.

• Integrated reflector: Helps direct light into the terrarium space.

• Daylight white light: Color temperature of 6480 K creates naturally appearing lighting.

• Good color rendering: Color rendering index Ra ≥ 84 enables quality color display of plants and animals.

• Suitable for live plants: Spectral composition provides light usable during photosynthesis.

• Effective passive cooling: Construction dissipates generated heat without the need for a fan.

• Connection option: Compatibility with selected SunLux, Arcadia and Reptile Systems fixtures.

• Compact dimensions: Length 47.5 cm and width only 5.9 cm.

• Long lifespan: Stated average lifespan of up to 50,000 hours.

Combine with UVA and UVB sources for proper lighting

Although SunLux LED PRO 24W provides intensive visible light, it does not replace a UVA or UVB radiation source.

Many diurnal reptiles have tetrachromatic vision, which allows them to perceive also part of the ultraviolet spectrum. UVA radiation may therefore be important for their natural visual perception, orientation and communication.

UVB radiation is essential in many reptiles for vitamin D3 production, which enables proper calcium utilization and supports healthy skeletal development.

To create suitable husbandry conditions, we recommend combining the LED panel with other sources according to the needs of the specific species:

• UVA/UVB fluorescent tube: To ensure necessary ultraviolet radiation.

• Heat lamp: To create a local basking spot.

• Additional daylight: If the terrarium size or plant needs require higher light intensity.

Proper combination of light sources helps create an environment that better corresponds to the natural conditions of kept animals.

Also suitable for growing terrarium plants

With intensive light and suitable representation of photosynthetically usable radiation, SunLux LED PRO 24W represents a practical choice for planted terrariums and vivariums.

Light in the PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) range is used by plants during photosynthesis. The term PUR (Photosynthetically Usable Radiation) refers to the part of radiation that plants can efficiently use.

The fixture can provide suitable conditions for example for the growth of:

• Tropical climbing plants

• Bromeliads

• Ferns

• Other plants commonly used in terrariums and vivariums

The actual suitability of lighting always depends on the specific plant species, distance from the light source and length of daily illumination.

Quality construction and passive cooling

SunLux LED PRO 24W is equipped with efficiently designed passive cooling, which helps dissipate heat generated during LED chip operation.

Due to the absence of an active fan, the fixture operates without noise caused by mechanical cooling.

Compact design with dimensions of 475 × 59 × 46 mm allows easy integration into terrarium lighting without the fixture taking up unnecessary space.

The fixture can be attached using supplied metal clips or placed on a suitable support surface above the vivarium. During installation, adequate ventilation must be ensured and the manufacturer's instructions followed.

Option to connect with other fixtures

A practical advantage of the SunLux LED PRO panel is the ability to connect with compatible fixtures for linear fluorescent tubes from SunLux, Arcadia or Reptile Systems brands.

This allows combining intensive LED lighting with other light sources within one terrarium assembly.

When connecting, it is necessary to verify the compatibility of specific models and observe the maximum permitted electrical load according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Recommendations for proper use

We recommend using SunLux LED PRO 24W as a source of intensive visible daylight, which is part of a comprehensive terrarium lighting system.

For diurnal reptile species, it is suitable to supplement it with appropriate UVA and UVB radiation and, if needed, also a heat source. The placement of individual lights should be adjusted to the terrarium size, the kept species and the required temperature and light gradient.

SunLux LED PRO 24W is a well-crafted and powerful LED fixture, which due to intensive daylight, plant growth support, effective passive cooling and long lifespan represents a practical solution for terrarium and vivarium lighting.
