The average outlet in a household can barely supply 1,000 watts through one outlet without blowing a circuit. This process is not necessarily easy and incorrect wiring can result in a short circuit, electrical fire or damaged bulbs.Ĭonsiderations Tanning beds require a high amount of power (up to 3,000 watts according to ). Due to the high power consumption of tanning beds, the bulbs must be correctly connected to a power ballast. When building a tanning bed it is better to err on the side of caution when adding bulbs. Using too many bulbs or bulbs with a high power output can result in severe burns and excess heat. Warning The bulbs used in tanning beds are extremely powerful. Creating a tanning bed at home is possible but does require significant effort. In addition, The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has stated that UV tanning beds are carcinogenic to humans and are in its highest cancer risk category.
It is much safer to purchase a pre-made tanning bed. A homemade tanning bed is not advised as slight miscalculations can result in serious health complications.
