Nocturnal Light Alternatives

EvolutionReptile Jan 26, 2005 04:42 PM

Anyone know of a cheaper alternative to nocturnal heat bulbs? I need to get about a dozen of them and don't really want to pay 8 bucks a pop.

Thanks,
jeff

I see LLLReptile has 75 watt Exo Terra Night Glo's for 3 bucks. I've used them before but can't remember how well they worked.

Some are the same and some are not. Look for a buld with a realy deep tint to the glass. The red ones put off alot of light.. You might also look into a heat projector....
