OVERALL RATING: ★★★★★It's a great basking lamp for my milksnake and my leopard gecko. Both my terrariums are set up with Zoomed lamps for their heat requirements.PROS:✓ Does not overheat.✓ Switch is easily accessible.✓ Ceramic handle and glass-like cover ensure the heat gets distributed adequately and provide my snake and gecko with great basking spots.✓ Great price and comes with two lamps so you can either use it for two animals or have some refills on hand.CONS:✕ The lamp lasted about 6 months on a smart plug that turns it on and off at night. I would've expected it to last a little longer, but since it is quite affordable, I don't mind rebuying it.✕ Doesn't come with a stand, if the terrarium or basking spot is right below, it can get quite hot for them. I would recommend buying a stand (not plastic) with it for optimal use.

These are good bulbs and give off a slightly larger heated area than say a halogen spot.

I bought 2 2-packs of these bulbs (4 total), glad to find a good deal. In hindsight, I should have just gone to our local pet store and spent a little more. One bulb lasted several weeks, being on for the day and off for the night (our usual pattern), until we were going out of town for the weekend. We turned the light off so the person watching the house wouldn't have to worry about it for those 2 days. Upon returning, we turned light on and realized the bulb had burned out. I put a new one in yesterday. Turned it off at night. This morning the brand-new bulb is already burned out! The second bulb lasted a matter of hours! What a waste.

Nothing like buying a 2 bulb pack, for one bulb to blow within 5min of turning it on!!Wish I'd just gone to a local store, would've saved me money in the long run.

I installed one of the bulbs from a 2 pack. It burned out in a week. I tried the second bulb, and it too burned out in less than a week. I tried calling them, left 3 messages & no one called me back. I looked in the box, there was a coupon that expired in 1922! Obviously they sold me out dated bulbs.

Let's face it, basking bulbs are just prone to buring out. We've used several brands and they all last about the same. The deal here is in the multi buy price.

I bought these to try instead of pro rep, which need changing every three weeks to a month , this one has a gently diffused heat, which my gekho seems to like .It maybe is not as hot as the pro rep as I have had to rurn the vivarium setting up , but time will tell.

I use these bulbs in a lamp for my red eared slider turtle. It's a 20 gallon long tank, and this provides plenty of light and warmth through the wire mesh top. They were shipped in good shape and last a long time. The 2 pack is handy because when one burns out, you have a back up and can order another pair. I also went with 50 watts just to keep my energy costs down, and using this for 8 hours every day doesn't seem to add to much expense to our electricity bill.

I have only had these lights for a week. However, I can say that they match the description as well as provide the raise in ambient temperature that I had desired. I use this for my 3' tall Whites tree frog tank so I do not need anything really strong, yet still does the job. First the bulbs arrived in a larger order package and arrived in pieces, but after a quick report I was sent a replacement in two days.

I have went through alot of these over the years. they are hit and miss. sometimes they last a long time and sometimes they burn out fast. my fixtures get moved around alot, so in all fairness some of the short lived ones could be my fault. for the price, i will keep buying them. they keep my reptiles toasty
