Ive had the Big Apple Pet Supply CHE for quite some time now, but it broke down. The metal part that is screwed into the lamp fixture is loose and now i have to send it back to Big Apple Pet Supply which costs me around $10 to ship (~$20 item)

In the meantime, I bought a Zilla Black Light heat bulb for ~$12 and it seems to be doing the job fine.

I have a on/off lamp fixture. I had a dimmer lamp fixture but every time i used it, it was either maxed out or off. So i decided to just make it more simple with the switch. Plus its a little cheaper for me.

So back to the title. Preference? Thanks for reading.
