Stupid question gets stupid answer. Yes it will slightly tan you, Also if you stare into the bulb itself (try sunglasses if your a wuss) you can see sun flares that were actually captured from the sun. Sun flares are what powers HPS lights.

there is a conclusive study proving a link between high occurances of cancer and exposure to HID lighting... i wish i had a link for you but the source is credible imo... NPR
tan at your own risk.

I believe the cancer risk comes from the UV emissions from mercury vapor in these lamps. MH lamps get most of their light from mercury emissions ( lots of UV ), where HPS lamps get most of the light from sodium emissions ( which has no UV* ). The glass envelope blocks a lot of UV, but not all. And a wide spectrum of UV can cause tan and cancer.
So HPS, probably not, MH, probably.
Bare mercury vapor flouros are used to disinfect with UV.

* technically, the starter gas contains a small amount of mercury and this does contribute to the emissions of HPS lamps.

Where the hell did you get that "sun-flare" crap?
The planet Earth is composed of material "left-over" from the formation of the sun, everthing on Earth including you and me were once part of the star making process.
However, harvesting solar flares is not a viable proceedure. I would love to see the space shuttle return to Earth full of "captured sun-flares" for the HID industry! LOL
Good luck & good grow......BB

Thank God I always put on SPF 50 before I go into my room, but now as I learned about this sun flares issues I might have to find something stronger then SPF 50.

Everything is a carcinogen! This is, of course, anything in excess is.

halogen bulbs work better i hear, gives a more even tan.

This! Works great. I tried it yesterday cause all this grow light tanning made me feel experimental. Hallogen worked good. Only trade off is I have this wierd lump on one of my balls now. Probably just gonna take a knife to it later. It's probably nothing.
