I am getting new enclosures for my beadies and am trying to make the same decision.

I have heard that coloured bulbs (what I currently use) disturb dragons' sleep, but I'm not sure if this is the same for pythons. I have also heard that ceramic heat emitters are better value for money in the long term as they don't fail like bulbs do so you are not changing them all the time. I'm not sure if there is anything different between a white ceramic heat emitter and a black one apart from that they are just a different colour. Ceramic heat emitters will reach a higher heat than bulbs and should be used with a dimming thermostat (this is what is recommended, but they can be used with an on /off thermostat too).

I would be interested to hear what others say about this too.
