I was disappointed with a few of those above bulbs from swell. Blew very quickly and I was surprised to find they offer no warranty on these. Be interested to see how yours fair. Could you update us please?
Of course I will, Lynn. I bought a variety actually - Arcadia, pro-rep and their own brand basking bulbs, so I’ll see how they all fare and will report back. Hopefully they won’t blow too quickly. I had one lamp holder that came with one of my rehomed torts and every bulb I put in it went within a day so it must have been a faulty holder.
I only have two tables with combi bulbs and had a run of combi bulbs coming broken, which I wasn’t amused at but touch wood since then I’ve had no problems but by choice I use separate uv and heat, especially after forking out for the set-ups over the years.
