Its kinda hard to figure out what your doing. If I watered my cages daily, they would fill with water. And if there was a 400degree lite, they would cook.
With that size animal, you could easily use one 45w halogen or a 65w incandesent flood lite. Either would would work very well and the lizards could climb on them all they want.
In order for you to add that much water, and I understand its a mist. You have to be loosing water and a lot of it.
All our cages have the lites inside the cage. This allows for more heat to be used by the animal and less moisture to be lost.
Now you can theorize all you want, about this or that, but this setup works and works well.
We have only had one problem with hundreds and hundreds of monitors and that was one adult whitethroad thought it was great fun to smack and break the lite with its tail. It did that as soon as you put a new one in. So I had to put a wire protector over it. Which they sell at home depot.
I have to ask, how much does that mega lite thing cost?
