I had a dome malfunction on one of my enclosures (flickering bulb) and i trid to unscrew the bulb,while it was plugged in like an idiot,then evevrything in my room just went out and my temps are dropping like crazy,it went from,a warm 95 on the warms side to 85f in about 20mins and its still dropping,anyone know what i could do? It gets pretty cold out here in NY,what can i do to heat up the viv for now,anything please i love my reptiles. Do you have anyidea when the power will come back on as well, and for those of you wondering how i am on the web i am on my laptop.

okay,so now its 79.0 on the warm and 74.5 on the cold,my house stays around 74 so it will go no lower than 74,but i know thats bad,Also for some reason my room light comes on but none of my outlets work.

It sounds like you need to flip the breaker.

turn the heat up!, also check your house breaker box for a tripped switch

check the circuit breakers or if you have fuses one may be blown. 74f is not that cold they will be fine at that temp for a while no problem.
If no breakers are tripped or fuses blown then you will have to call an electrician to look at the circuit in question.

check your fuse panel, sounds like you blew the outlet fuse.

om my god,thank you so much! It seems as if one of the switches were the other way in the breaker box and i had to flick it back,luckily my father did not leave out for work yet and he told me where and what a breaker box was lol,i'm am not the best electrician,but i got everything back on and running,thank you so much,i do not know what i would have done with out this forum,honestly,thank you alll so much for the help

This got me thinking if this were to happen again,but with a black out(hope not), i would be unprepared so today i am going to try and some type of heat source that does not need a plug that could be used in emergency situations,like this http://toolmonger.com/2008/01/04/hea...-hand-warmers/ , hopefully i can find some and use it ever something ever came up(ounce again hope not), i said this like 100 hundred times,but again thank you so much!
