Vutlace Infrared Reptile Heat Lamp With Timer

If you need a reliable way to create a consistent basking spot in a terrarium, this reptile heat lamp offers a focused heat and light source designed for basking reptiles. It is built around a ceramic E27 fitting and the product description references use with a 150W infrared bulb. The 7 inch lampshade widens the heated area so you can produce a clear basking zone for species that favour surface warmth.

The fixture uses a deep aluminium reflector to concentrate infrared output and increase visible brightness, helping to establish a distinct warm area in the enclosure. A programmable cycle timer offers 2, 4 or 8 hour on/off cycles and there are three brightness settings, which together help maintain a repeatable day-night pattern without manual switching. Practical safety features include a top ventilation port to reduce heat build-up and an insulated hook for secure hanging. This lamp is suitable for creating a basking spot for tortoises, bearded dragons and other basking reptiles, or for shared use where two or more small animals need the same heat source. As with any heat lamp, position it to create a thermal gradient and use a separate thermometer or thermostat probe to confirm temperatures at the basking surface.
