Setting up for my soon to adopt beardie... light question

I have an extra light on my planted aquarium and I'm wondering if it could be used and/or be beneficial for my bearded dragon? I haven't got a beardie yet as I am in the process of finding one to adopt but I'm getting the enclosure all ready for when he/she arrives.. The light is pretty cool(for plants) and can be set on a 24 hour cycle but I've read that the full spectrum might be bad for a beaded dragon. I bought two for my fish tank but one ended up being plenty so, I thought I could get some good use out of it.. Below is a link to the light. any input on using it for the beardie is greatly appreciated!!

It's a finnex planted 24/7

That is an awesome light but won't do anything for a beardie. They need UVB and a basking lamp. They also don't need a red light or anytime of nighttime light. It could possibly be used in a chameleon tank since it's planted tank but you would still need a UVB and a heat light for them too.
