Heat lamps

[Craig66]

Hey everyone , I a bit confused again as you seen in my last thread lol , when I bought this blue tongue the person I bought it off told me to get these light bulbs from Bunnings instead of buying heat lamps from pet retailers , it started to dawn on me over the few weeks that it doesn't seem right about these bulbs I don't think they priduce the heat that is required for the reptile so I went back to the red heat bulb that I got from the pet shop.
Any thoughts please would be much appreciated .

Are you talking about the Philips brand spot globes? One of these do exactly the same as a heat globe from a pet or reptile shop.

Have you tried using a Thermometer to test what the actual temperature is?
