🔥 High Performance Repti Basking Spot Lamp (50 Watt) for Optimal Heat and Sunlight Review

Some reviews say they fade quickly within days but mine has always lasted months. This may be because I keep all my lights on dimmers to better control the heat.

So far a lightbulb hasn't lasted as long as I'd hoped but for what it is they work well. I haven't checked if they are unbreakable or not, but I won't. The tortoises seem content with this and happily spend a lot of time within about 7 inches.

I've been through many of these over the years. They hit and missed. sometimes they last a long time and sometimes they burn out quickly. My devices move around a lot so to be honest some of the short lived ones might be my fault. For the price I will continue to buy them. They keep my reptiles roasted

Works as advertised at a great price. I bought 3 sets and they usually last 4 to 6 months, at least 2 months. Mine works 14 hours a day or 420 hours a month. Most commercial reflector bulbs are rated for an average life of 1500-2000 hours. So if I can use each bulb for an average of 4-5 months then they are within most manufacturers specs.

I use these lamps in my red-eared turtle lamp. This is a 20 gallon aquarium and offers plenty of light and heat through the wire mesh panel. Arrived in good condition and has lasted a long time. A 2-pack is handy because if one burns out you have a backup and can order another pair. I also went with 50 watts just to keep my electricity bills down and using it 8 hours a day doesn't seem to add to our electric bills.

Bought 2 packs of 50w bulbs for use with Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp and the first bulb had already burned out. It lasted 15 days. This is on a timer and 13 hours a day. Let's see how well the second lamp does before I consider ordering it again. You would think they would last longer. ***EDIT** I put in a second bulb and it lasted 7 months. Just upgraded my rating to 3 stars. ** Would be 4-5 if both bulbs lasted that long!
