Hey there!
I'm trying to find the cheapest light fixture of a particular style and I'm hoping someone here can steer me to where I can find it.
Here's a style very similar to what I'm looking for, but this thing is waaaayyy too costly. Light Fixture
I don't need the blue glass. I don't need or want any glass encasing. All I want is a ceiling mount with the protective guard.
Purpose: I'm thinking about using it to house CHE's in new cages. I'll modify the guard, probably adding a protective screen to the outside of the guard.
Cages are gonna be for large Burms & Retics. Flexwatt would be the cheapest heat source but I'm none too wild about routing out large areas for it, weakening the cage floor for such large, heavy snakes.
By the time I pay for two CHE's and two light fixtures I'll have spent almost as much money as I would for a proper size radiant heat panel or heat mat. Hmmmmmmmm.....
"To be or not to be; that is the question."
Anyone know of a source for cheap lighting fixtures like I mentioned?
I could modify just about any ol' ceiling mount fixture or block off the whole area around the CHEs but I'd prefer to do as little extra work and/or keep things looking somehwat decent (eye pleasing).
That's enough rambling from me, for now, at least.
Thanks! HH ----- Due to political correctness run amuck, this ol' hillbilly is now referred to as an: Appalachian American
