Find a productProduct description
This lamp is intended for keepers of desert and semi-desert reptiles who want to replace several separate light sources with one fixture. It combines an incandescent heat source with UVB and UVA emission in a standard E27 socket, so the terrarium can be lit and heated from one point.
Why it matters
- Combined output: heat, daylight, infrared and UVB/UVA radiation come from a single bulb, so a separate heat lamp and UV tube are not required.
- Simple installation: the bulb runs on 230 V through a standard E27 socket and needs no ballast.
- Heat gradient: the surface temperature falls from 43°C at 30 cm to 25°C at 90 cm, allowing the animal to choose its preferred zone.
- Higher UVB mounting: the rated UVB output at 30 cm is 245 µW/cm², so the lamp can be placed higher above the enclosure while still delivering UVB.

What it works with
The lamp is designed for desert and semi-desert terrariums with a basking zone and a cooler area, where the heat and UV values fall off with distance from the bulb. It must not be used in fittings with dimmers or voltage-modulating devices, but it can be operated with an electronic timer.

Frequently asked questions
The bulb uses an E27 base, runs on 230V, and does not require a ballast (statecznik). It is a 160W bulb.
No. The bulb must not be used in fittings with dimmers or other devices that modulate voltage. It can be used with an electronic timer.
The listed surface temperatures are 43°C at 30 cm, 38°C at 45 cm, 34°C at 60 cm, 30°C at 70 cm, 28°C at 80 cm and 25°C at 90 cm. Heat falls quickly as the distance increases.
The listed UVB/UVA output (µW/cm²) is 245/1590 at 30 cm, 145/669 at 45 cm, 53/312 at 60 cm, 42/243 at 70 cm, 34/189 at 80 cm and 28/160 at 90 cm. Output decreases noticeably with greater distance, so mounting height matters.
The manufacturer states a lifespan of over 6000 hours. It can be operated with an electronic timer for automatic on/off control.
