FAQs

What types of bulbs can I use?

You can use a wide range of lamps up to 250W, including Solar Basking heat lamps, Halogen Flood Lamps, DHP, D3 basking lamps, CHE and Compact lamps.

How do I clean the reflector?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the reflector dome and mesh cover. Ensure the lamp is turned off and cooled down before cleaning.

Is the mesh cover necessary?

Yes, the mesh cover is essential for preventing burns and protecting your pet and yourself during maintenance.

Can I use a mercury vapor bulb?

Yes, but it must be positioned vertically.

What is the warranty?

Warranty information is not available in the product data. Contact the retailer for more information.

How do I mount the lamp in a vivarium?

Use the included vivarium fixing bracket to securely attach the lamp to the inside of the enclosure.

Why is the reflector important?

The reflector maximizes light and heat reflection, ensuring that as much energy as possible is directed towards your reptile, and increasing UVB projection.

Troubleshooting

Lamp won't turn on.

Check the power connection and the in-line on/off switch. Ensure the bulb is properly installed and not burnt out.

Lamp is overheating the enclosure.

Adjust the lamp's position to increase the distance from the basking spot, or use a lower wattage bulb. Monitor the temperature with a thermometer.

Bulb lifespan seems short.

Ensure the bulb type is correct for the fixture and that it's not exceeding the wattage limit. Check the power supply for fluctuations.
