The ProRep Basking Flood Lamp is an E27 screw-fit heat lamp with a diffused coating, which spreads heat and light evenly across the enclosure and helps avoid very hot spots. It gives off visible light, short-wave infrared heat and low levels of UVA, so it lights and warms the enclosure in one bulb. It is a good choice for reptiles that bask, in small to large enclosures depending on the wattage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEven, Gentle Heat:\u003c\/strong\u003e A diffused coating spreads the heat and light more evenly than a spot lamp, with fewer hot spots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat and Light in One:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gives out visible light and short-wave infrared heat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes UVA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gives off low levels of UVA light as well as heat and visible light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree Wattages:\u003c\/strong\u003e Available in 40w, 60w and 100w, to suit different enclosure sizes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard E27 Screw Fitting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits any compatible E27 lamp holder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupports Natural Behaviour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps create the warm area your reptile needs for basking and thermoregulation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy We Rate This\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReptiles cannot warm themselves from the inside, so they rely on their enclosure to do it for them. A lamp gives them a warm area to heat up in, and the cooler end of the enclosure lets them cool down again, which is how they regulate their temperature and digest their food. A flood lamp spreads that warmth more evenly and gently than a spot lamp, so it suits enclosures where you want a warm, well-lit area and not one intense hot spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReplacing an E27 Basking Spot Lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ProRep Basking Spot Lamp is no longer made with an E27 screw fitting. If you need a screw-fit bulb to replace one, this flood lamp is the E27 alternative. It spreads the heat more widely than the spot lamp did, so check the temperature of your basking area with a thermometer when you fit it, and adjust the wattage or the height of the lamp if you need to. If your lamp holder is a bayonet (BC) fitting, we stock the ProRep Basking Spot Lamp with a BC fitting, which concentrates the heat into one defined basking spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note: UVA Is Not UVB\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis lamp gives off UVA, but it does not give off UVB.
