Quick Product Snapshot

Material and Design Breakdown

The Zilla Heat Projector features durable metal construction built to withstand the heat demands of continuous terrarium use. Its infrared projector design focuses heat output in a wide beam, directing warmth efficiently into the enclosure rather than dispersing it outward. This targeted heat delivery supports a more natural basking gradient, helping reptiles regulate their body temperature effectively throughout the day and night.

Setup and Compatibility Guidance

This heat projector is designed to fit Zilla Reflector Dome and Premium Reflector Dome fixtures in 5.5" and 8.5" sizes. Position the lamp directly above the designated basking area, maintaining a minimum distance of 8" between the lamp and the basking surface. If temperatures exceed the ideal range for your species, increase the distance between the lamp and the basking spot to fine-tune the heat output.

Care and Maintenance

Allow the bulb to cool completely before handling or repositioning. Inspect the metal housing periodically for signs of wear. Replace the bulb when heat output diminishes or the unit no longer performs as expected.
