Yesterday, I bought an ESB Avalon 20 tanning bed from my sister who bought it a few years ago. It's only got 6 hours on it and still looks brand new! I read where most bulbs are best from 0-200 hours, then start degrading until they are useless between 800-1200 hours. Even at 200 hours, it'll be YEARS before I need new bulbs.
Yes, I know this is a hot tub forum, but I figured some of you may also have experience with tanning beds and may have recommendations about maintenance and sources for supplies (i.e. lamps, cleaners, etc.). I was hoping to be able to download a .PDF manual for it, but the best I've found so far is the original dealer (still local) can order one for about $20.00.
