Reptile Basking Clamp Lamp with On/Off Switch
The Fluker's Repta-Clamp Lamp is engineered for reptiles that rely on a consistent, well-positioned basking spot. This 8.5-inch version strikes the ideal balance between the compact 5.5-inch and the larger 10-inch models, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of terrarium sizes. A built-in on/off switch and sturdy safety clamp make daily use straightforward and secure.
Rated up to 150 watts for incandescent bulbs, the Repta-Clamp Lamp provides reliable power for creating an effective basking zone. The safety clamp attaches firmly to the rim of any terrarium, keeping the lamp stable and properly positioned throughout the day.
Sold individually. The 8.5-inch size and black finish offer a clean, unobtrusive look that integrates naturally into most terrarium setups.
