Zilla Black Reflector Dome Light Fixture - 5.5 in

Dependable Heat and Light for Reptile Terrariums

The Zilla Black Reflector Dome is a durable incandescent light fixture built to deliver consistent heat and light to reptile terrariums for years of reliable use. The 5.5-inch size is well-suited for smaller terrariums and compact setups where a full-size dome would be too large. A ceramic socket handles the constant heat demands of bulbs up to 150 watts without degrading over time.

The powder-coated black exterior provides a clean, finished look, while the reflective white interior directs more of your bulb's heat and light output downward into the enclosure. A 6-foot power cord with a conveniently positioned in-line on/off switch makes daily operation easy, and included spring clips hold the dome securely on screen tops.

Whether you're running a basking bulb or a standard heat lamp in a smaller enclosure, the Zilla Reflector Dome provides a stable, long-lasting fixture that handles the job without issue.

Quick Product Snapshot

Material and Design Breakdown

The ceramic socket is rated to handle sustained exposure to bulbs up to 150 watts, providing longer fixture life compared to standard plastic sockets. The powder-coated finish on the exterior resists wear and maintains its appearance over time. The reflective white interior coating directs more of the bulb's output downward into the enclosure, improving the efficiency of your heat and light source. The spring clip attachment system keeps the dome stable on screen tops without requiring additional hardware.

Setup and Compatibility Guidance

Attach the dome to your terrarium's screen top using the included spring clips. Position the dome over the basking zone or the area where heat and light delivery is needed. The 6-foot cord provides flexibility in outlet placement. Use bulbs rated at 150 watts or below to stay within the fixture's specifications.

Care and Maintenance

Allow the fixture to cool completely before handling or cleaning. Wipe the exterior and interior with a dry or lightly damp cloth as needed. Inspect the cord and socket periodically for signs of wear.
