Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp, 5.5"

Reptiles, being ectothermic or "cold-blooded," rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature since they cannot generate their own warmth. This heat is essential for digestion, overall health, and proper bodily functions. As pet owners, it's our responsibility to provide the necessary heat through specialized heat lamps.

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 ceramic socket for safe and reliable use.

Note: Bulb is not included.

Maximum bulb wattage: 100w

Diameter: 5.5"

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, placing it over the basking spot on either the far left or right side to establish a proper temperature gradient.

For optimal results, pair this lamp with the Zoo Med ReptiTemp Digital Infrared Thermometer to monitor the basking area temperature and ensure it meets your reptile's specific needs.
