If your animal is nocturnal, or if you keep a species that does not bask, the maker's stated use does not cover it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach lamp draws 75 W, so check that the fixture you plan to use is rated for that wattage before you fit a bulb. The lamp also raises the ambient air temperature of the terrarium, which affects the whole enclosure rather than only one corner, so measure the temperature at both the basking site and the cooler end before you settle on a position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e75 watts of power from each lamp\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach bulb in the pack puts out 75 W. The maker lists energy efficiency among the lamp's special features alongside that figure. The same lamp is described as producing UVA rays, and its double reflector is built to direct 35% more heat and light than a regular spot lamp does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow the double reflector shapes the basking site\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside each lamp, a double reflector concentrates the output into a tighter beam than an ordinary reflector bulb produces. That tighter beam carries heat to one specific area, which gives your reptile a defined basking site instead of a broad wash of warmth across the terrarium. The same beam supplies the UVA rays the maker attributes to the lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the beam is narrow, the basking spot sits where you aim the fixture, and the rest of the enclosure stays outside the direct beam while the ambient air still warms. The lamp is made of glass, and the white body measures 3 x 3 x 4 in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this basking lamp\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow many bulbs come in the pack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pack contains two lamps, so you get a spare or a second basking site from one purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much power does each lamp use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach bulb draws 75 W.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the bulb made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach lamp is made of glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich animals does Zoo Med list the lamp for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer names diurnal reptiles that regulate their heat by basking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow large is one lamp?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach lamp measures 7.6 x 7.6 x 10.2 cm (3 x 3 x 4 in) and weighs 91 g (3.2 oz).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the double reflector do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt focuses the light and heat into a tighter beam, and the maker states it delivers 35% more heat and light than a regular spot lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoo Med","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44476867248191,"sku":null,"price":44.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/2409\/1199\/files\/zoo-med-heat-lamp-2-pack.jpg?v=1794697722","url":"https:\/\/dogjointly.com\/products\/zoo-med-basking-spot-lamp-75w-2-pack","provider":"DogJointly","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
