Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp, 8.5"

Reptiles, being ectothermic or "cold-blooded," rely on external heat sources rather than generating their own body warmth. They use this heat to aid digestion, support vital functions, and remain in good health. As they can't produce heat internally, providing them with a suitable heat lamp is essential.

Ensure your reptile stays at the ideal temperature with the Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp. Crafted from durable, heavy-duty painted aluminum, this lamp features a heat-resistant porcelain socket for long-lasting use.

Please note: Bulb is not included.

Maximum bulb wattage: 150w

Diameter: 8.5"

Usage Instructions:

Securely screw the bulb into the socket. Connect the cord to a power outlet or timer if required, then test the on/off switch to confirm the bulb lights up. Position the lamp on the mesh lid of your terrarium, above the basking spot on either the far left or right side to establish a proper temperature gradient.

For optimal temperature monitoring, pair this lamp with the Zoo Med ReptiTemp Digital Infrared Thermometer to ensure your reptile's basking area maintains the correct heat level for their specific needs.
