Daylight 50W – 3‑in‑1 heating bulb"

The Komodo Daylight 50W is a single daytime heating bulb for reptile enclosures where the keeper wants heat, visible light and UVA from one fitting instead of several lamps. It suits turtle, chameleon and snake setups, as well as desert and tropical species, where high temperature should go together with strong daylight.

Why it matters

• It combines the functions of a basking spot bulb, an infrared heater, a neodymium bulb and a UVA source, so one lamp can replace several in the enclosure.
• According to the manufacturer's breakdown, the light output is roughly 31% basking spot, 31% infrared and 39% neodymium, which gives a balance of heat and visible light.
• It emits a high level of visible light for both humans and reptiles, along with a significant amount of infrared and UVA radiation.
• Its 2500K colour temperature and visible light output are intended to support plant growth and mark the time of day in the enclosure.

What it works with

The bulb uses a standard E27 fitting and is stated to work with all thermostats and dimmers. Komodo recommends the Komodo dimming thermostat, the Terrario ReptiSun lamp with clip and adjustment, Ringder THC and AC controllers, and Repti-Zoo THC controllers of all series. Because the output is strong, the lamp is best used with a dimmer or thermostat for heat control in larger daytime heating setups.
