Bulbs

[homzie]

I just purchased a Sunquest 16S tanning bed for my home and I don't feel I'm getting very tan. I've thought about getting new hotter bulbs. Would this help? If so-what brands work the best?

Only certain bulbs are compatible with other bulbs. Could be that you aren't getting much color because it is only a 16 lamp bed. It can take a long time in those smaller beds.
How often are you tanning?

Lamps!! Lamps!! They are called lamps. Sorry, could not resist. Just helping out to get the terms right.

I am tanning about 4-5 times a week for 30 minutes. I'm really really regretting only getting a 16 bulb bed!! What else can I do? I'm using good lotions and moisturizers as well. Would the Velocity Plus Bulbs or Bronze Twister bulbs help?

ouchies, yes a 16 bulb bed wouldnt tan someone very well who already has a fairly dark tan.... 30 mins... wow

Do most tanning distributors do any upgrading if I wanted to trade or something for a 24 bulb bed?
