Setup & Use
Install the holder securely according to the supplied instructions. Choose a compatible E27 bulb that fits within the fixture and does not exceed its 150W maximum rating.
Position the lamp to achieve the required basking conditions, maintaining the clearances specified for both the fixture and bulb. Monitor temperatures at the basking surface and cooler end of the enclosure after installation.
The dome and bulb become hot during operation. Prevent your animal from touching either component, using a suitable guard where required. Switch off and unplug the fixture, then allow it to cool fully before handling or replacing the bulb.
Simply Fish Recommendation
A practical holder for directing a suitable basking lamp towards a chosen heating area. Match the bulb to your animal’s temperature requirements rather than automatically choosing the maximum wattage. Pair the setup with appropriate temperature control and an independent thermometer.
