In your opinion and experience, if you are housing your sulcata indoors, what is the best brand and most productive UVB light bulb? What about a Mercury Vapor bulb? as those produce a lot of heat as well, do the regular UVB bulbs produce a lot of heat?

If you put him outside for a couple of hours a week you won't need a UVB bulb.

He will be fine. In my opinion he doesn't need a UVB bulb. I have raised many healthy tortoises with just an incandescent bulb, and have Bob who weighs 102 pounds and is very healthy and has never used a UVB bulb on him...
