Exoterra infrared basking spot 150W R30 E27 'punainen

An infrared spot bulb for terrariums, 150 W, E27 cap.

The bulb is a heater rather than a light: a special filament produces infrared waves and the red glass lets them through. The reddish light does not disrupt the animal's normal cycle, so the bulb works as a heat source around the clock.

A built-in reflector lets you direct the heat where you want it. That creates the temperature gradient a reptile needs to regulate its body temperature. Heat is also a precondition for digestion: too cool and a reptile cannot digest what it has eaten.

The red light can also be used for watching the animals at night.

For a full daily cycle: combine it with a daytime bulb (Daytime Heat Lamp or Daylight Basking Spot) so that day and night are distinct.

The product is intended for keeping reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates only.
