Review on πŸŒ‘ Night Black Heat Incandescent Zilla by Jenn Hartman

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Durability: Incandescent

. My first original purchase of this lamp was from a reptile store and this lamp lasted about 3 months before it burned out. I was very impressed with the durability of this bulb so I decided to purchase this particular brand through Revain. I bought them in January but unfortunately it's now March and I've already burned out all 3 bulbs. I leave this light on 24/7. on my snake's side and I admit I'm not exactly sure how long each light should last, but the first light purchased from the reptile store definitely lasted longer than all 3. The first light from this purchase only lasted 2 weeks I thought it was ok until it blew up. Maybe it was just a lemon. The next was about 2.5 weeks POSSIBLY a month before going out and this last one was about the same. I'm not overly impressed with how long they last but will say the lights work as long as the tank stays dark. instead of those bright bulbs that light up the whole room and my snake is able to keep its day/night schedule with natural light coming through the windows. I need to do more research on different dark bulbs before making this purchase again.

Pros
  • High performance filaments provide more hours per bulb.
Cons
  • It was possible to choose a newer model
