This also cancels out the bumping and banging of the bulbs that will extend their life. It also is safer because you are not placing super hot light bulbs and fixtures on other objects around the tank.

I use these and they are about $19-25 at both big box pet stores. http://www.amazon.com/Zoo-Med-Reptil...med+lamp+stand
yeah i was thinking of the same thing pretty much, i'm a mechanic and some of the light sources i use is one that has a clamp on the light fixture so i was gonna use one of those, but the one in your link seems much better.
