I would suggest getting a higher wattage. If you get a lower wattage, it will struggle all night to keep the cage at a good temperature, whereas a higher wattage (100, I would say) would do the job nicely, and wouldn't have to be on all night long trying to keep up with the cold air getting in to the cage.

It works great! You just turn the dial to the temp you want the cage to be, attach the probe thermometer to the inside of the cage (high up on the wall) plug the CHE into the thermostat, and done! It has been keeping Lily's cage nice and toasty at 75F. Oh, and I use a 100 watt bulb. |

A Ceramic Heat Emitter doesn't have anything built in to it - it looks like a light bulb, and emits heat. You screw the CHE bulb into a dome, and plug the dome into a thermostat.
I think you should go check out the Heatig & Lighting thread ![]()
