Is this UVB bulb good enough?

I would use a tube style uv bulb. If you can the arcadia T5 bulbs are the best out there and only need replacing once a yaer as opposed to twice a year with the bulb in the link.
 
Any exo terra compacts I have used have blown in a matter of days but thats just my luck! It has now been found by many people 10.0 is better with T8 bubs and compacts as they really dont give out alot of uv (tests have been done and showed on here) and the screen takes away alot of uv! i personally use a 12% uv on my chameleons :D
 
I was going to go with a coiled bulb, but I recently read an article linking them to cases of blindness in chameleons. That scared me away from them and back to a straight tube.
 
i think the problem wtih compacts that used to make cham blind is resolved !i will go for 2 compacts 5.0 for bigger coverage
