    These lamps are used for fluorescence effects where less visible light is ideal. 09 N/A Sun-tanning lamps: These lamps produce wide or narrow band UV-B radiation 10 BL Black-Light lamps: Black light lamps give off long-wave UV-A radiation of around 350-400 nm. They are often used to attract insects to traps.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T5_retrofit_conversion

    T5 retrofit conversion can maintain existing lighting levels with the higher efficiency of the T5 lamp. However, with kits that operates the lamp on the existing magnetic ballast, the efficiency drops and the lamp life is considerably shortened, as T5 lamps aren't designed to be operated on mains frequency but only on high frequency.

    ![Spectrum of fluorescent Broadband UVB lamp](File:Spectrum_of_fluorescent_Broadband_UVB_lamp.png) Narrowband UVB lamps, on the other hand, emit light in the 311-312 nanometer range. These lamps require a dose of 2 joules per square centimeter to achieve the same therapeutic effect as a 293 nanometer lamp, which is 20 times higher.

    Halogen lamps with fused quartz envelopes are used as inexpensive UV light sources in the near UV range, from 400 to 300 nm, in some scientific instruments. Due to its black-body spectrum a filament light bulb is a very inefficient ultraviolet source, emitting only a fraction of a percent of its energy as UV, as explained by the black body ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-halide_lamp

    Like other gas-discharge lamps such as the very-similar mercury-vapor lamps, metal-halide lamps produce light by ionizing a mixture of gases in an electric arc.In a metal-halide lamp, the compact arc tube contains a mixture of argon or xenon, mercury, and a variety of metal halides, such as sodium iodide and scandium iodide.
