Flukers Repta-Clamp Lamp with Switch for Reptiles Black, 5.5-Inches

I am still giving it a four star review because it still works fine. I was able to bend it back to a decent shape with minimal dents. If you want it to be more aesthetically pleasing, be sure to contact them to ensure that the shipping is handled with care. First few photos show the initial find, the last is what it looked like after I reshaped it.

Love this light

Fluckers heat lamp and bulb was bought for a recently rescued turtle. He is temporarily in an aquarium while we wait for his wooden enclosure to arrive. The heat lamp I will say is working. However I am a little concerned with the very strong plastic burning smell coming off of it. As well as the fact that he whole lamp including part of the cord is hot to the touch. Im thinking thos is definitely something that can only be used while someones watching it because it could be a series fire hazard. It has gotten. This hot while its been on plugged in under an hour. Also it has a clamp but cant figure out how to use the clamp yet, but dont need it right now so doesnt matter, but might to someone who needs the clamp.

I dont use the clamp, I just sort of sit it on top of the wire mesh on top of the cage. Keeps the habitat nice & toasty!

Exactly what you would want and expect.

Took two lamps to maintain our 40 gal. terrarium at 80 degrees. Used with ceramic heat emitter.

I use this with a low-wattage CHE for my gecko. It works well, but the clamp is a pain to attach, and doesnt clamp onto things very securely. I dealt with that by clamping it to the top bar of a lamp stand and sticking a piece of wood through the loops of the clamp above the bar, so it cant slip off.

The width helps hold the heat in the tank.

Flimsy, but gets the job done.

Love it so much! It was a little tricky setting the actual lamp up on the stand thing but we figured it out. My suggestion would be to add a small direction booklet or at least directions on the package. Especially if this is for a first timer it would be confusing for them to set it up.
