How large of a UV bulb do I need for a 80" long enclosure? A 18", 24", 36", or a 48"? And do Repti-Sun UV bulbs work well?

It depends what type of enclosure it is. Also, I hope this isn't anything other than a small baby. Anything other than that needs a much larger enclosure.

80 inches long, IMO, is fine for a monitor up to about 2 feet long. After that, then yes a larger one is needed. Can you tell me how wide the enclosure is? I would get the two 36 inch fixtures and span the back of the enclosure with it, assuming the enclosure is about 2 feet wide or so.

I agree 80 inch long enclosure isnt too small for a savannah.
Home made enclosures for large adults are more ideal, but not always possible.

These are the cage measurements: 80" W x 28" D x 44" H.

This is the cage.
