[@ingeniouspixie]

Wow, this looks really cool! Now i wish i needed a new heat lamp. Lol Will be looking for this when i do!

[@nashaundawiley869]

For a bearded dragon in a 120 gallon tank, what is the required watts? Also, is the bulb and lamp sold seperately?

[@vinnyheasman8587]

Will this bulb still provide good ambient air temperature like your solar flood bulbs do ?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

yes in a similar but more efficant way

[@roykck]

May I know what is the temperature for PAR38 100w flood in distance of 12"/30cm?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

direct to mains it will heat a dark rock to 70C+ over time, its hot!

[@adamfurniss1707]

For a 50w flood were do i put the probe, using as a buddy along with dhp ,my dhp probe is under but a little to the side, should i do the same with the halogen, plus i cant find the distance from the animal guide for a cornsnake

[@ArcadiaReptile]

I always put them below the lamp on the rock at basking. I know what i have then

[@BONBRA]

Hi! Excuse me, what’s the temperature range for 40 cm?

[@neilwhitelaw3844]

Thank you

[@billyvillegas3847]

for a leopard gecko do i use the halogen for day and deep heat projector at night or do i keep no heat source at night?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

Hi, this depends on the ambient temps around and in your viv. If they drop below the ideal night temp DHP can be used well to bring the temps back up. It can also be used with the Halogen and will improve the spectrum and make your provision of energy more bioavailable, but you will need to stat control them.

[@billyvillegas3847]

@@ArcadiaReptile if there is no heat source at night can i feed my leopard geckos at night? Are they able to digest their food properly? I use beach rocks on the warm side to retain heat and also so he can bask on. Or does it just take a couple days for him to adapt to the daytime(heat+light+uvb) and nighttime cycle(heat if necessary)?

What is best for a uromastyx in a 40g tank? The 75 watt or something else?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

i would use the PAR38 100w flood with dimming thermostat. This will easily cover the whole adult animal and is powerful enough to create high basking temps

[@ViciousRaven]

Can I use this in combination with an Arcadia tube UVB instead of the DHP?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

instead or even better, with DHP is fine

[@SilentC90]

Do you have to buy a fixture if you have screen top?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

in truth, no. But it certainly reduces the risk of accidental knock over and burns.

[@albeme5211]

So,just connect to dimmer correct?. lutron credenza dimmer is what I got.

[@ArcadiaReptile]

dimming thermostats are best with a suitable probe.

[@albeme5211]

@@ArcadiaReptile any suggestions?

[@orphicroblox2677]

Can I have this for a leopard gecko?

[@ArcadiaReptile]

yes of course, with thermostatic control to stop the heat getting too high

[@kerm9807]

So what is best for a bearded dragon Deep heat projector Basking lamp Or this new one????

[@ArcadiaReptile]

The best is a combo of the DHP and a suitable Halogen flood lamp such as this one or the 100w PAR38.

[@kerm9807]

@@ArcadiaReptile on it 🤜🤛

[@BVA663]

I found that this lamp on its own doesn’t give adequate ambient temps and the cool side is way to low

[@zenextract7903]

I bought one of these and it won't fit in my heat lamp

[@BVA663]

Didn’t like it. Bought the 75watt one connected to a dimming stat, set thermostat to 30c and the light is constantly dimming and flickering. Drove me mad let alone my poor snake. Horrendous!
