Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp, 10"

Reptiles, being ectothermic or "cold-blooded," rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature since they cannot generate their own warmth. This external heat is crucial for digestion, maintaining bodily functions, and overall well-being. As they can't produce heat internally, providing the right heat source through heat lamps is essential for their care.

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 porcelain socket for long-lasting use.

Note: Bulb is not included with this product.

Maximum bulb wattage: 250w

Diameter: 10"

Usage Instructions:

Screw the bulb securely into the socket. Connect the cord to a power outlet or timer if required, then test the on/off switch to confirm the bulb functions properly. Position the lamp on the mesh screen of your terrarium, placing it over the basking spot at either the far left or right side to establish a proper temperature gradient.

For optimal results, monitor the basking area temperature using the Zoo Med ReptiTemp Digital Infrared Thermometer to ensure it meets your reptile's specific needs, available at shop.morphmarket.com.
