Talking Deep heat projector

Here I am waking you up again!

So what's Jonathan on about now?

A new gadget, the Arcadia Deep Heat Projector.

http://www.arcadiareptile.com/enviro...eat-projector/

What does it do? It warms up a tortoise and claims to do it better than for example a halogen lamp. No visible light.

So is it just like a wee electric heater then? And does the tortoise know to sit in the right place?

It says that you must use a dimming stat and claims the 50 watt gadget provides more heat than a 100 watt heat emitter. This could be handy in a coldframe I'm thinking: for those very overcast days (plenty here).

I've splashed out £14 plus postage and will update you once it's here and set up.

I'll try it out indoors to start with.
