Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Eckpo Dimmable LED UVB Lamp is the number 9 entry in this guide, and it is a 4 W LED unit rather than a mercury vapour bulb. The listing quotes UVB at around 300 nm, a UVB module rated for up to 8,000 hours that runs independently of the UVA-LED, four automated modes (M1/M2/M3/M4) and timer periods of 4, 8 or 12 hours a day. It costs £32.99 and holds 4.3 out of 5 from 308 ratings. No heat or temperature figure appears anywhere in the listing; the only wattage given is 4 watts.
Two numbers on this fiche sit awkwardly against the rest of it. The voltage field reads "120 Volts" next to a power description of "AC (alternating current) adapter", and nothing in the listing reconciles the two. The same sheet lists "Number of Lights: 2" while "Number of Items" and "Number of Packs" both read 1. There is a gap in the ratings too: the headline figure is 308 ratings, but the star breakdown available for this listing covers 100 of them — 67 five-star, 15 four-star, and 18 at three stars or below. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing as it is written there, not from any test of our own.

Questions people ask
How many watts does the Eckpo LED-4W draw?
The listing gives the wattage as 4 watts, which matches the model number LED-4W and the 4 W in the product name.
What voltage does the Eckpo LED-4W run on?
The voltage field says 120 Volts and the power and plug description says AC (alternating current) adapter. The Eckpo listing does not explain how those two statements fit together, so it is worth checking the plug and adapter before ordering.
How long does the UVB output last?
The listing states up to 8,000 hours, and explains this by saying the UVB module in the Eckpo LED-4W is non-integrated and operates independently from the UVA-LED.
What lighting cycles can I set?
The Eckpo LED-4W offers four automated modes (M1/M2/M3/M4) and timer periods of 4, 8 or 12 hours per day, according to the listing.
How many lights come in the box?
The listing says "Number of Lights: 2" but also "Number of Items: 1" and "Number of Packs: 1". It does not say whether the second light is a spare unit or the UVA-LED inside the same housing.
What reptiles is the Eckpo LED-4W suitable for?
The product name lists tortoise and gecko, and the bullets add chameleons, geckos, turtles and more. The bulbs themselves are described as suitable for a variety of reptiles and amphibians.
