Cartridge is good, a problem

Cartridge is good, a problem, the screw holding the front bracket (leg) is too long and does not tighten the leg, so it is safe to use, I had to use a long shank screwdriver to hold it on top of the gas cap, looks great lol. I called Zilla, left a detailed message and asked for a call back. I called them on 9/3/2017 and am still waiting for a call back. I will not buy any other Zilla products. Revain should seek such reviews and, where suppliers are unable to provide adequate customer service…

Ideal for turtles.

I currently have a small turtle in a 29 gallon aquarium. Since this tank is very high and the water level is kept low I wasn't sure if it would be effective enough. It's been a while and I can say this seems to be helping. I use a 5W UVB lamp and a 25W mini heat lamp. So far this setup has maintained a constant water temperature of 75 degrees with a bathing area of about 82 degrees about 15 inches below the light. I've never seen this turtle basking, but it's there when it wants to. I also took

Pros
  • Hands free

Works great and looks great!

What I like most about this light is that it is compact and contains everything you need, unlike other lights that have less aesthetic details that come from the back or top protrude. I've had it for almost 3 months now and it's working great so far. My bearded dragon loves to lie under or on his rocks which have a heat mat underneath. The body heats up when touched. I wouldn't say it's heated, but it definitely is. I'd suggest just making sure it's just touching the top of your terrarium and…

Great for my painted turtle

I've been using this product for over half a year and I'm very happy with it. Not sure why the other reviewers aren't getting enough heat from them as I tested with a conventional thermometer as well as an infrared digital thermometer and at 8 inches the temp was in the 83-86 range. At 5 or 6 inches I exceeded 95-100 and even higher in some places. The lamps I purchased are direct from Revain and are in the Featured Products section for this product. This lamp is used for the painted turtle…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities

Over three years and still amazing.

[06/09/2018 Edit: I bought this in May 2015 and it's still holding up great. I still like to use non-Zilla 25w halogen bulbs with ReptiSun 5.0 UVB mini bulbs. It's awesome.] I've always struggled with getting good lights for my turtle, struggling with installation, etc. Luckily this fixed everything so I can have a single light that mounts with both lights directly on the screen and it seems to be working great. Very comfortable and seems more manageable to both me and the Turtle Bathing Pier…
