These high-tech bulbs utilize the best technology to tan you safely.

Furthermore, there is a different bulb for every kind of skin too. The tanning bed industry produces different lamps for dark to light skin colours. Besides that, you can have a soft tan, a golden tan, a bronze tan, or one the deepest of darkest tans you have ever seen. You can also change the type of lamp, as your tan progresses, so that you can achieve any combination of quite amazing results.

A tanning bulb is like having your own source of sunlight in a bottle. In fact, it is even better, because you are in control of it! Modern tanning bed lamps are manufactured to the strictest specifications and so are very safe. The sunbed industry and the government have implemented strict rules to guarantee your safety. So, if you carefully follow the instructions supplied with the lamps, you can be sure that you will not be putting your health at risk in order to look like a Hollywood film star.

The UV rays they emit are well within prescribed safety limits to ensure you stay healthy and tanned. Furthermore, there are plenty of choices open to you, ranging from UVB and UVA combinations to pure UVA. It is your choice! So, why not get a little extra tan?

Tanning lamps are ultraviolet-emitting devices that act as the main element of the different sorts of tanning beds and booths on the market. Sun bed lamps have as their main purpose the enhancement of a cosmetic tan, although these bulbs also have a reputation for the successful treatment of eczema and psoriasis. The depth and colour of tanning produced depends on the spectrum of light produced by the tanning lamps and the vast majority of them produce more ultraviolet light than the sun.

Nearly all sunbed lamps use a unit called a ‘ballast’ to regulate their power consumption. The ballast stabilizes the flow of electrical energy inside the lamp and is needed in order to ensure that the lamps use only the necessary amount of wattage that they require in order to work properly.

There are various kinds of sunbed lamps on sale and include reflector tanning bulbs and high output lamps. Most bulbs fall into two main groups: high pressure and low pressure types. (Within the tanning industry, it is usual to refer to high pressure tanning lamps as bulbs and low pressure tanning bulbs as lamps). Both high and low pressure tanning bulbs require a lack of oxygen inside the tube.

High pressure tanning bulbs vary in length from three to five inches and operate with 250 to 2,000 watt ballasts, 400 watt high pressure tanning bulbs are the most common. They are often included in the face tanning component of a tanning bed. High pressure tanning bulbs are made of quartz glass and an additional specialized coating, which is essential to filter out potentially deadly UVC ultraviolet rays.

These HP tanning bulbs, containing mercury or argon, produce ultraviolet light in high amounts. Handling high pressure tanning bulbs requires a great deal of care, because even a tiny amount of oil from your hands can cause the bulb to fail prematurely. High pressure tanning bulbs should be replaced after about 1,000 hours even though they will shine for up to ten times longer.

Low pressure tanning lamps are very similar to ordinary fluorescent lights, but the glass tube of low pressure tanning bulbs automatically filters out UVC ultraviolet rays. Low pressure bulbs have a useful lifespan of between 600 and 1,600 hours with 1,000 hours being the norm again.

Golf is a game of rules and etiquette, and it is quite important to know the essentials of golfing etiquette before you go up to the tee to play your first game of golf.

It doesn’t matter whether you are playing alone, in a twosome or in a foursome, golfing etiquette demands that you must always wait your turn. You must remain aware of the group on the next hole and wait until they are well ahead of you before hitting your ball.

Golfing etiquette also says that it is never correct to “push” the group in front of you. If you are playing with others, wait your turn to hit the ball and never play at the same time as another player.

While you wait for your turn to play, go to your ball and decide what golf club you will need to use and how you are going to hit the golf ball with it. This is called “ready golf” and keeps the game moving along, but don’t rush everybody, just be ready for your turn to play.

Another nice piece of golfing etiquette, especially for the novice is ‘playing through’. For example, if your team is holding up the players behind you, say because you are consistently over par, let them play through. You would simply wave them through, or if they are near enough, ask them if they would like to play through. You will never make an enemy by doing this!

When someone is making a shot, you should be behind them and you shouldn’t make a sound! It is so distracting to be just about to to tee off and just as you pull back, someone decides to jingle coins in their pocket or noisily unwrap a piece of candy.

Replacing divots. Let’s say you are on the fairway and you hit the ball a bit thick and a clod of earth and grass goes flying, golfing etiquette says that you ought to repair the hole. On some courses you just put the clod back and step on it to keep it down, but on most courses, there is a sand/seed mixture on the course to put into the divot. Also, if your ball makes a deep impression when it lands on the green, you should use your divot tool to repair it.

As soon as you have finished a hole, replace the flag and leave the green quickly so that the next players can play that hole. Count your score and write it on the scorecard as soon as you’re back at your cart.

There is much more to golfing etiquette of course, but these simple essentials of golfing etiquette will enable you to get through the course without upsetting anyone. If we all keep to golfing etiquette we will keep the game friendly, or not?
