2-Pack Ceramic Heat Emitter,150W Reptile Heat Lamp Bulb for Amphibian
HealSmart 2-Pack 150W Ceramic Heat Emitter — Silent, No-Light Heat for Reptiles & Brooders
If you’re looking for a reliable, no-light heat solution for terrariums, brooders, or incubation, the HealSmart 150W ceramic heat emitters deliver stable radiant warmth without disrupting sleep cycles — ideal for lizards, turtles, snakes, amphibians and poultry.
Why choose ceramic heat emitters?
Ceramic heat emitters (CHEs) are one of the safest ways to provide constant, radiant heat without light. Unlike heat bulbs that emit visible light, a ceramic heat emitter provides infrared heat only — which helps maintain natural day/night cycles for many reptiles and nocturnal animals.
Key Features
- 24/7 Heat Source: Suitable for continuous daytime or nighttime use when mounted in a proper porcelain/socket fixture.
- No Visible Light: Produces radiant heat only — ideal for species that require uninterrupted darkness while still needing warmth.
- High Quality & Efficiency: Ni-Cr-Alloy resistance wire embedded in high-purity pottery clay for fast temperature rise and efficient heat transfer.
- Moisture Resistant & Durable: Designed to resist moisture and cracking, suitable for enclosed terrarium environments (observe ventilation recommendations).
- Wide Application: Perfect for reptile terrariums (bearded dragons, geckos, snakes, turtles), amphibian enclosures, poultry brooders, and incubating eggs.

Safety Notice: The surface becomes very hot in operation. Do not touch the bulb to test temperature. Maintain proper spacing to avoid overheating animals or enclosure materials. Keep away from flammable materials and use only suitable porcelain or ceramic lamp holders rated for continuous use.
How to use — quick setup tips
- Install the ceramic heat emitter in a properly rated porcelain E26 socket fixture designed for terrarium or brooder use.
- Position the emitter so that it heats the target basking or brooding area without being too close to animals — monitor temperatures with a reliable thermometer or thermostat probe (do not use your hand to test heat).
- Use a thermostat or temperature controller when possible to maintain consistent temperatures and prevent overheating.
- Ensure the enclosure has adequate ventilation to prevent humidity buildup; ceramic emitters are moisture-resistant but enclosures must still be managed.
Benefits for pets and hatchlings
- Uninterrupted night cycle: No visible light means nocturnal species sleep normally while still getting heat.
- Even radiant warmth: Ceramic bodies deliver steady infrared heat that mimics natural warmth from sunlight.
- Multi-purpose: From reptile terrariums to poultry brooders, CHEs offer versatile heating options.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Q: Can I leave this emitter on 24 hours?
- A: Yes — ceramic heat emitters are designed for continuous operation when used in proper fixtures. However, pair them with a thermostat or controller to maintain safe temperatures for your animals.
- Q: Will this bulb emit visible light?
- A: No. The HealSmart ceramic heat emitter is a no-light heat source — it emits infrared heat only and does not produce visible light that would disturb nocturnal animals.
- Q: Is this safe for high-humidity terrariums?
- A: The bulb is moisture-resistant but not waterproof. Ensure the fixture and enclosure are ventilated and keep direct water away from the socket. Use fixtures rated for humid environments where possible.
- Q: What socket do I need?
- A: Standard E26 (medium) porcelain lamp holders are required. Avoid plastic sockets and always use fixtures rated for the wattage and continuous operation.
