Customers say
Customers find the heat lamp works well and is great for reptiles, with an easy-to-use rocker switch and secure clamp. The heat generation receives mixed feedback – while some say it keeps baby chicks warm, others note it gets very hot. Durability is also mixed, with some finding it lasting while others report it breaking within a week. Customers disagree on the value for money, and compatibility is problematic as it’s not suitable for ceramic heat emitters.

GREAT!
Positive:Great quality!Easy to turn on and off!Does what it needs to, shine a bulb on my turtles!Negative:It is not very well put together. It definitely won’t fall apart on you but you can shake the lamp and see the parts shake. If that makes sense. Everything is not tightly put together. But that is not an issue with me! It works fine and doesn’t break.

Works well for my snake cage
I have a 6 ft boa constrictor and I am in Los Angeles, so it gets about 40’s at night. Keeps snake warm, but higher wattage bulb (150 watts not 100) would have been optimal. Dome fits nicely on cage mesh slot, and bulb by same maker fits well inside. Runs 24/7 and had this for a month or more, no problems. Works very well. Snakey is very happy!

Good Lamp for one animal
I use this lamp for my turtle and it works fine. stays clamped onto the side of his tank easily and securely, Good for focusing on a small basking area. It is a little loose so positioning is not easy, but I just let it point straight down on my turtle’s basking rock and it works fine. Otherwise, works great, easy to turn on and off with switch on cord.

Great Lamp…Great Company Zoo Med!
Much better heat lamp holder for my birds than just the generic rickety thing we must have gotten at a hardware store. Nice looking too….black. Nice that the control is on the cord near the top instead of the holder itself…always was hot to touch on the old cheap one we had. BIG PLUS…Zoo Med is a wonderful company! I didn’t know which size to buy…called their info number and got such great help…they even knew I wasn’t buying it from their website but from Amazon…didn’t make a difference…they just want you to do right by your critters! Will feel good about buying any of their products.

Accepts my 100W Infrared Backing bulb Nicely with a Slight Modification
I inherited a Russian tortoise recently. He was in a smaller terarium so we decided to upgrade to a larger. However the new one is 16 inches high versus the 12 inches. SO I needed a fixture that I could use that could accomodate a 100 W infra red bulb but also allow me to rest it on the mesh grating on the top of the cage. I also bought on Amazon the Exo Terra 100W Infra Red basking lamp to use with this as it measured slightly less in height than another manufactures bulb. The only problem was that even though the bulb was not as high it still touched the mesh (extended so slightly beyond the edge of the fixture). The solution was simply. On four corners I clipped “black binder clips” which raised it enough to clear the mesh. I then removed the two metal handles from the clips. This allows me to keep the bulb as close to the mesh without touching to get the maximum heating for the tortoise below.I do not use the clamp feature and removed the clamp because I do not need this. I highly recommend this lamp especially that it can accomodate 100W bulb safely.

Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp
Worked very well with the Floureon 110V Ceramic Infrared Emitter Heat…to keep my baby chicks warm. I like the solid shields of these. I got some with just a cage instead of the solid shields and was not as pleased with the cage ones.

Here is my post I put on a hermit crab forum. It will make sense once you read it. Do not buy these lamps.
Here is my post I put on a hermit crab forum. It will make sense once you read it. Do not buy these lamps. I had only used them less that 18 months a piece.Ok so before you all hate me. I put my tank which is all set up perfectly upstairs in my daughters room. Its huge and has 2 Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp with 5.5-Inch Dome lights. Worked fine for 2 years. Well today i plugged it back in and noticed one lamp was not getting hot. So i flipped the switch on the wire thinking it was turned off. But I really had turned it off by doing that. 5 hours later I go back and the lamp is still cold. I flip the switch again and this time i hear a buzz. Then flip it off/on again and hear it again a slight sizzle. I wiggle the wires and BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sparks, flash, zap and pop. Black smore and electric flying. I yank the plug. Its like the plastic wire that comes out of the top of the light was melted somewhere in the ceramic base. Needless to say I love my crabs but I love my house, wife and 2 infants more. I cant trust to keep them plugged in. Im too afraid. Anyone on Long Island, NY want free crabs? If no one adopts, what are the options I have? The freezer? Ive loved them for ages but this has taught me to never have a heat lamp in my house ever again.

Funktioniert einwandfrei und isoliert sogar die Wärme ein bisschen nach oben. Durch die Metall Halterung kann ich es anheben (Keramik heater) und wieder in Position bringen. Der Schirm ist auch sehr robust und hat meine Katze überlebt, war ich sehr begeistert.Würde ich noch einmal kaufen falls ich mir ein neues Spinnlein zulege.
