Dimmers, thermostats and rheostats are not to be used with these bulbs. The supply voltage must be stable, and the bulb should sit more than 30 cm from the reptiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater should not be splashed on a bulb while it is in use. The manufacturer also warns against switching the bulb straight back on after turning it off, and against frequent on and off cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow long each bulb is used and replaced\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer recommends running the bulb for 4 to 6 hours a day. Replace the bulb once every 3 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the bulbs behave in a terrarium\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bulb works as a basking spot for the animal and lifts the air temperature of the glass container at the same time. The coating added to this 3rd generation bulb sits on the glass, and the E26 base fits standard lamp holders. Installation is straightforward because the bulb screws into that base like any E26 bulb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong the animals the manufacturer lists for this bulb are bearded dragons, hermit crabs, tegus, monitors, chuckwallas, uromastyx, toads, frogs, chameleons, lizards, iguanas, snakes, geckos, turtles and tortoises. The visible light is a UVA daylight type, so the basking spot is lit while the bulb runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWattage and voltage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach bulb draws 50W and is rated for 120 volts. Because 120 volts is the rated figure, check that the fixture is connected to a supply of that voltage and is not subject to fluctuations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions buyers ask about this heat bulb\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many bulbs come in the pack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pack holds 2 bulbs, and each one is rated at 50W.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich socket does the bulb fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bulb has an E26 base and fits a standard E26 lamp holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow far should the bulb be from the animal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep a distance of more than 30 cm between the bulb and the reptiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long should the bulb stay on each day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRun the bulb for 4 to 6 hours a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow often does the bulb need replacing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplace the bulb once every 3 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan this bulb be used with a thermostat or dimmer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bulb is not to be used with dimmers, thermostats or rheostats.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LUCKY HERP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44475044069439,"sku":null,"price":40.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/2409\/1199\/files\/lucky-herp-heat-lamp-2-pack.jpg?v=1794661931","url":"https:\/\/dogjointly.com\/products\/lucky-herp-50w-reptile-heat-lamp-bulb-2-pack","provider":"DogJointly","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
