Are made from a piece of plywood with a hole drilled in the center big enough to fit a 16 gauge lamp wiring through, I then attach at even distances ceramic light assemblies that cost between $1.19 to $1.99 each, they are wired together and then I drill holes in the corners to attach 2 large section of chain with zip ties to adjust its height from hooks in the cage ceiling. I use 2 bulbs for almost 4ft monitors, 3 bulbs for 4 plus ft monitors, and sometimes 5 for Sobek depends on the time of year and ambient temps.
