Hi,

I have our BP in a 20 long with a ZooMed dual overhead lamp. I use a standard incandescent bulb for the daytime cycle and a incandescent night bulb for the night cycle. I'm having problems with the night bulbs burning out quickly. I was losing a bulb every 2 weeks and finally brought the ZooMed lamp back and exchanged it. Now the bulbs seem to be lasting a little longer, but even at 3-4 weeks, they are expensive to be replacing that often. The daylight bulb lasts 5-6 times longer... I've tried ZooMed, Zilla and the generic store brand, all with similar results.

I need 75 watt for the summer months and 100 watt for the winter to maintain the right temps.

Does anyone have any recommendations where I can buy them online? $7-10 a bulb at the lps is a bit expensive when they burn out so quickly. I like my setup and i'm not looking to go ceramic. Just looking for a cheap online source.

Thanks in advance!

Mog
