Repticare Infared Ceramic Heat Emitter (100 watt)

very good

Got it for my dog house and was disappointed it didnt work as well as I thought it would.

This is a great way to keep your reptile warm. And if youre sleeping in the same room, a bright light wont keep you awake.

I bought this heater and a new zoo med dome light at the same time to insure the life of it. Worked great helping to maintain some extra heat in the cage at night without light. After about 8 months of use it wasnt working, i unscrewed it and put it back in and it worked another couple months before it quit. These heaters are suppose to work a couple years but i couldnt get a year out of it.

This thing gets extremely hot!!! You have to let it cool way down to be able to touch it. We use it with a dimmer lamp so we can adjust the heat.

I like using this type of heat for my Bearded Dragon and Uromastyx. This bulb gives off radiant heat without the usual red glow of other heat bulbs. I will be purchasing again from this seller in the near future.

I have three 100W Ceramic Heat Emitters for my two snakes and my bearded dragon. Two for the snakes are kept on dimmers that keep the temperatures right where they need to be. The one for my bearded dragon keeps the 40 gallon breeder tank right at the temperatures she needs and keeps her basking spot around 105 degrees. The CHE is approximately 15 inches above her basking spot. This brand has worked great so far, and Ive had all three around two months and they are still going strong, which is a lot better than the regular red infrared bulbs I was using before that only lasted around a month and a half.

Product arrived intact, but when I tried to install it I noticed that the part that screws into ballast was squashed to one side, rendering it useless. I dont think it was damaged during shipment, I was just sent a defective product. Would appreciate some quality control with products like this, considering were in a cold part of the season and my reptile could have really used this ASAP. My reptile will be fine, but I imagine some people who would really need a replacement in a dire situation would be disappointed in receiving something in this condition.

This works well, puts out the heat without lighting up the whole room. No complaints from the lizard on this one!

The bulb was working good for a few months but then i started smelling a burning rubber smell that was coming from the bulb. I had to throw it away to avoid the risk of fire. My tortoises did love the heat while it did work though.
