I have both a uth and a basking bulb. Everything is on thermostats and timers just in case someone says something. Anywho... my bp will often climb up on his log to bask and appears to enjoy it. It gets him to climb and makes it so he’s visible occasionally so it doesn’t look like an empty tank. I think either option is fine as long as your temps are correct. Imo there’s no harm having a low watt bulb for daytime basking. Again as long as temps and humidity are correct it doesn’t really matter what you use.
