I am no expert with Bearded Dragons. I just learn from what I read in the various forums and Internet articles. The reason the setup is so important for these type of bulbs is because the UVB comes out more concentrated than a florescent tube. Given this if the setup is wrong your Bearded Dragon will be exposed to a much higher concentration of UVB which can burn their eyes and make them lethargic and sick. I had a Zilla compact coil bulb in my starter set which I quickly threw out after doing some research. I can't speak for the bulb you have and value the other opinions. I just don't know what the benefits of this type of bulb is over the Reptisun 10.0 florescent bulb is which is by far the most recommended bulb to use.
