    Burn out WAY too fast
    These bulbs tend to burn out in less than 30 days. I got this most recent bulb on June 29 and it burned out by July 12. I find this incredibly frustrating.The bulb spends 12 hours a day on and 12 hours a day off as recommended by the reptile specialist. I don’t understand why these bulbs just do not last. This has happened with every single one I’ve bought. Lesson finally learned.

    Horrible
    This is the third bulb I had to order, first 2 came in broken, FINALLY got one that worked, and blew on the 31st day, now I can’t return it and I’m out $20 and have to wait for another one to come in. It also has a really bad concentration point and gets way to hot in that spot, not waste your money.

    Die Lampe an sich ist super. aber wie der Vorredner schon sagte, sie hat leider eine sehr kurze Lebensdauer. Heute ist die Lampe nach nicht mal 3 Wochen Einsatz kaputt gegangen. die davor hatte wenigstens 9 Wochen gehalten. Die Rückgabe für diese Bestellung war leider nur möglich bis 20. Februar. ich werde mir diese Lampe nicht mehr auf Vorrat bestellen, sondern – wenn überhaupt noch mal online – erst, wenn die Lampe kaputt ist. in der Hoffnung, daß dies erst im Sommer passiert, so dass ich den zusätzlichen Wärmespot nicht am gleichen Tag brauche.Dann habe ich wenigstens die Chance auf Ersatz bei der kurzen RückgabeFrist, sollte sich die nächste online bestellte Lampe wieder so schnell verabschieden. Musste mir eben kurzfristig Ersatz im Zoohandel besorgen, da ich nicht damit rechnen konnte, daß man besser immer 2 Ersatzlampen braucht! ziemlich kostspieliges Unterfangen, leider noch keinen adäquaten Ersatz gefunden 🙁

    Lesson learned in purchasing these fragile items online is the risk of damaged products. And between time being wasted to return/ refund etc. it’s also just adding to more waste.It was easier for us to buy from a local pet shop in our neighbourhood.

    Wieder nach zwei Monaten defekt.Hatten schon Birnen von ExoTerra die bereits nach Lieferung oder nach einer Woche nicht mehr heizten.So viel Geld und null Qualität. Müssen uns nun wieder mit amazon auseinander setzen.
