Product Description
What are they? A porcelain heating device that screws into a standard porcelain incandescent socket What do they do? Heat emitters give off intense infrared heat, penetrating into the animals muscles, but emit no light! The perfect 24 hour heat source for all tropical and desert reptiles. Why is the Zoo Med emitter best? Our flat faced design (standard in the ceramic heat industry) is more efficient than conical designs in that it leaves less heat inside the emitter which will ultimately carbonize the element. Our emitters last up to 5 years, which is twice as long as the competition! They keep on going, and going and going... Water resistant! Perfect for high humidity terrariums! Great heat source for a Zoo Med IguanArium and other wire or screen type enclosures. Great for use with our Repti Temp Thermostat or a Rheostats! The ONLY UL/CUL listed Ceramic Heat Emitter!
Use in clamp lamps other than Zoo Meds Repti Porcelain Clamp Lamp voids guarantees.

I wish whole heartedly someone could help me resolve this issue. They are not even answering my calls or emails anymore- and I have never received a working ceramic heat emitter. I need it for an ill iguana.
Maybe because it is in the wire cage clip suggested and heat disperses, but there is more heat coming from a light bulb than this thing. Hard to tell if it is even on.
The product does what is claims, which is provide heat without light. My iguana loves it because it keeps his big cage nice and cozy, especially his basking spot. It does get quite hot, so make sure you have a thermometer, timer, thermostat, or rheostat to maintain the temperature you’re aiming for and that your animal can’t touch the bulb. Make sure you have a dome/lamp with a ceramic socket for this bulb. Also, pay attention to how many watts you’ll need for the size of the enclosure you’re heating. I was able to find this cheaper on Amazon than the pet stores.
These work great. Use on parrot cages to keep a nice warm spot during the winter. Birds love to get next to them when they sleep or just want a little extra warmth.
This heater work’s great in my chicken tractor. There coop is 4′x4′and holds only four chickens for now.
