Zoo Med Repti Basking Spot Lamp, 50w (2 pack)

  This bulb does not produce UVB. Reptiles are ectothermic, which means that instead of producing their own body heat, they depend on external sources like the sun for warmth. This heat energy is used to digest their food, maintain bodily function, and stay generally healthy. Since reptiles don't produce their own heat, we must provide the heat they need with heat lamps. The Zoo Med Repti Basking Spot Lamp is an incandescent spot-style basking bulb with a unique double reflector design that focuses 35% more heat and light than regular spot lamps.  Buy 2 at a time to cluster your heat lamps together for a bigger basking area, or to have a spare for backup! Bulbs are warrantied by the manufacturer for 3 months. Estimated bulb lifespan: 2,000 hours or at least 3 months Instructions for use: Install your Zoo Med Repti Basking Spot Lamp in a ceramic-socket dome lamp fixture rated above the bulb's wattage. If the bulb is mounted inside the enclosure, use a bulb cage to prevent burns through
