Went out the other day in need of replacing my UV bulb because it died on me. I saw at petsmart that they had a MVB by exoterra. It is the solar glo MVB and it comes in 2 wattages, either 125 or 160. I opted for the 125 as I thought that the 160 would be too much.
My first thoughts are that it is a very good bulb. For a few dollars more than the compact florescent style UVB bulbs it has the added benefit of heating as well. my old setup had 2 100W incandescent bulbs for heat and light, 1 25W UVB bulb, and a 100W ceramic heater. Now I just have the 125W bulb and the 100W heater.
The bulb sold at petsmart for 39.99 for either the 125 or the 160. All in all I give it an A and would recommend it.
