For the purposes of this, I'm assuming that by "sun lamp" we're talking about the UV lamps in botany, if there's another kind of sun lamp I'm missing boy will my face be red (from a tan, because UV B rays do that)
Cool concept but: What stops the "meta" of a Lizard device scanning/stealing/buying UV lamps literally every single round and dragging it around with them because they -have- to have fast metabolism. Why? I don't know, but it's good to poke at an idea you like to see if it has some unintended consequences.
Yes yes, I point out to myself: the metabolism traits are pretty niche as it is, but you just know someone will feel some perverse need to keep a "buff" going around the clock.
Maybe it only works around anchored UV lamps? Or if you're not moving? Or just let installing a blacklight tube on station bulbs let saurians get the same effect: Genetics just sitting there in their little purple genetics room cozy. That could be funny.
