Review on GE 043168906593 250W Medium Infrared by Tricia Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

CLEAR version of this heat lamp, ideal for reptiles

I have kept reptiles for many years and purchase most of my supplies from my local pet store. After reading an article in Hobby Farms, I realized that I could use these lamps (for heating only) as a heat source for a fraction of the cost of so-called heat lamps in the reptile department. They work well and have switched all my herpes tanks to these GE bulbs as the old ones burned out. My bearded dragons did great. Clutch after clutch of viable eggs. IMPORTANT: You still need a UVB source for healthy cold sores. HOWEVER, GE, IF YOU ARE THERE AND WANT TO GIVE ME SOME MONEY, I AM THERE!

Pros
  • This is a Ge R40 infrared lamp, 250W, medical base, 6-9/16". Clear box
Cons
  • String is shorter than others
