This PureSun Midi Lighting Kit, made by the experts at Arcadia, is perfect for most cages two foot / 60cm wide or more, and comes with everything you need to provide full spectrum UV light for your feathered friend.
It also allows your bird to make their own Vitamin D3. Having optimum levels of Vitamin D3 helps keep your bird in good health. It is essential for proper calcium metabolism, for normal growth, maintenance of strong bones and egg production.
Your beaky buddy has specialised retinas that enable them to see colours in the UV spectrum, helping them to recognise mates, locate food, and identify different species. Without UVA, birds are deprived of the full colour spectrum they see in nature and are colour blind. Unlock their world and let your bird see it in full colour.
UVA is essential for the psychological health of your bird. Using lighting that emits UVA can also help to curb feather picking and other destructive behaviours. It also promotes singing in songbirds.
As always, this high-quality flicker free lamp is guaranteed to be UV potent for 12 whole months. We recommend using for 6- 8 hours per day, split over two 3-4 hour periods with at least a 2 hour break in between. The bulb should be 150mm (7") from your bird's head.
After 12 months we recommend you replace the bulb - Please see product 828175
This kit comes with the 14w ProT5 flicker free fitting with removable reflector, fittings kit, British made acrylic support arm and the PureSun-Midi 14w Arcadia Bird Light.
Simply assemble the kit as instructed, bolt the kit to the cage, check that your perch placement is at the correct height and that’s it, your bird can enjoy high quality full-spectrum +UVB energy with all of its associated health benefits.
EU adaptor not supplied.
The replacement bulb is product code 828175

The lamp itself seems good. My conure is just having it on for an hour or two at day currently to get her used to it. However the way it attaches to the cage is not suitable. When placed as high as it will go, it is approx 10cms from my bird's head. Not the 20-30cms needed. So the choice was to not use the top 1/3 of the cage, changing the placement of all perches and toys and risk her pooping in her food and water, or find another way to fix it to the cage. I have purchased a budgie cage stand and fixed it to my cage with cable ties. Doesn't look the best and cost more but it was the only thing I could think of. Disappointed really to have paid £90 and for it to be unusable.

The lamp is good, it was among the ones recommended by my vet. Nothing to complain about it. The problem is the stand, I found it very hard to fit in my cage (poor instructions), cheap material and awful design. For this price (roughly £90), I would have expected something much better.

Not suitable for our two cages, screw to secure bracket not long enough to go through bars as bracket sits out when in contact with cage frame and as our cages are top openers the bracket isn’t big enough to allow the top to open even if the bracket securing screw were longer and we were able to fix it to a cage. Seems very expensive for what is essentially a standard light fitting with a metal trim and a three pin plug with a bit of flex.
