Reptile One Daylight Basking Heat Lamp 100W – E27

Create a warm, bright basking spot with the Reptile One Daylight Basking Heat Lamp 100W. Designed for daytime use, this reptile heat bulb provides white light and directional warmth over a selected basking area.

Setup & Use

Install the bulb in a suitable ceramic E27 lamp holder and heat-resistant fixture rated for at least 100W. Position it above the basking area, following the fixture’s installation and clearance instructions.

Check temperatures at the basking surface and cooler end of the enclosure. The heat achieved will depend on lamp distance, ventilation, enclosure dimensions and room temperature, so wattage alone cannot determine suitability.

Prevent your reptile from touching the bulb. Switch off the power and allow the lamp to cool fully before handling or replacing it.

Simply Fish Recommendation

Choose your basking bulb around the temperatures your reptile needs. Measure the basking area after installation and make sure a cooler retreat remains available. Pair this lamp with appropriate UVB lighting where required for your species.
