Hey Guys,
Figured I would give an update on how the new RHP is working out.. I have it in my 4x2x2 cage I made. Well to my disappoinment, it only maintained the ambiant air of the hot side to a mere 77.9.. So I am not happy with it. It does make the outside top 89 degrees alot of good that does me.. I should mention that besides the RHP I am running 2 foot Cobra UTH and that makes the floor temp 90..
So all in all, I wasted 40 bucks..
Sorry
Steve

OK Steve. Here's the problem. I have a much larger cage than a 4x2x2. My cage is 6W x 2D x 4H. I was planning on using one of these RHP's, obviously that is out, due to what you experienced with your enclosures. What do you reccomend for that size of cage. Should I get a few of these RHP's or should I get a large wattage CHP, or perhaps a couple CHP's? I know that with CHP's I'll have to build a caging around them and I have the plans for that.
In case anyone is interested, here's a website that give's good instructions for building one: http://www.reptilesdownunder.com/rep...lightguard.pdf
Any suggestions so that I don't waste my money on something that just ain't worth it?
