Exo Terra's Ceramic Heater - 60 W Lamp Pack for Reptile Heat, Ceramic Emitter with 150-Watt Ceramic Heat Emitter, Compatible with Exo Terra Light and Thermostat

It can get very cold in my area and having chickens can be challenging, especially trying to keep their water from icing over. I have 2 waterers (metal), one inside the coop and one hanging outside and had trouble as soon as the temp dipped down to 20 degrees. Bought a pumice block and stepping stone, hubby made it so I could fit a ceramic light fixture inside, then set the inside waterer so it just hangs on top (for leveling). Turned it on and it works like a charm, also keeps the right temp inside the coop. The outside one was more challenging, so also had the ceramic/block set-up, set the waterer on top, but this time wrapped an electric heat cord (at least 5 wraps) and plugged both in, and it also works great. Temp has gotten down to 2 degrees and as long as I keep the waterers full, no freezing.

i was pleasantly surprised at my order, i was sent the professional series 60 watt, black CHE. This product is working excellently. I cannot say however how good the one advertised here is. but the one i got in my order is working great at a low energy cost, i also bought the pro series 100 watt CHE from a local pet shop and that has been keeping my Chinese water dragons nice and cozy in their homes since October of 2011.Again, this is what i received and i am definitely satisfied.http://www.amazon.com/Exo-Terra-Ceramic-Heater-watt/dp/B007GUS25M/ref=sr_1_2?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1339710307&sr=1-2I'm guessing maybe that amazon had a shortage of the 60 watt (white colored) heater which has gotten many poor reviews.However i definitely recommend the pro series from exo terra.Also check out big apple pet supply because they have great wattage, long lasting Ceramic heaters as well.

You might smell some smells or hear some noises or wonder if it's working at the beginning. I'm pretty sure that's normal. Mine works great! This helps keep my iguana warm at night without putting out any light and its has worked since I bought it 3 1/2 months ago. It still works. I have mine on a timer and dimmer so I have TOTAL TEMPERATURE CONTROL MOWAHAHHAAAA! It sends heat DEEP down into the tank, as opposed to a wide and shallow heating range. I would recommend having one deep and one wide or having multiple lamps of some sorts.

Works well in our dog house. I mounted it inside a wire cage inside my out-door dog house. It does a good job keeping the inside warm.

These are a must for herp keepers, especially those living in colder climates during the winter months. The ceramic heater I have has lasted for 10+ years with zero issues. It gets INTENSELY hot, so use gloves if you're going anywhere near this thing.A good distance from your herp would be around 1.5 to 2 feet, minimum, FYI. If the ambient temp is still too cold, use a blanket over part of the tank and keep an eye on the gauges.

this item did not last, within a few months the spiral socket fitting cracked off and the lamp was unusable. after a hassle with the Hagen corp to try and get replacement while it was still under warranty they reluctantly sent a new emitter (same model). BUT now the SAME failure of the SAME model heater in a different socket has occurred and almost caught my house on FIRE this time! another product (mercury vapor bulb) from this brand has also failed and customer service for Hagan is refusing to help without a purchase receipt, so lame. but poor quality AND poor customer service mean i will not be buying any products from Exo-Terra again and do not recommend!

Received this product DOA. Getting a replacement.After receiving this product, I was excited to install it since my lizard needs a bit more heat.I attempted to screw it in to the fixture and it wouldn't go. I tried a couple times thinking it was just me. I finally gave up and investigated why it just wouldn't screw in. Apparently this passed their quality testing because the threads were mashed together which I didn't even this was possible. I used thin metal bar to pry them apart hoping that would fix the issue, however, it didn't.I set it on the table and noticed that not only were the threads messed up, it was not straight.Waiting for the replacement.See the attached pictures so you can see what I am talking about.

I love this product. Works amazing and will be buying more for future projects
