Exo Terra Reptile Dome with Bracket – Nano – 40 Watt Max

 

The Exo Terra Reptile Dome with Bracket – Nano is a lighting fixture designed for smaller terrariums, such as the Exo Terra Natural terrarium NANO or MINI. It serves the purpose of providing heat and light sources to create a suitable environment for reptiles and other animals in captivity. Here are some key features and details about this product:

 

Compact Design: The Exo Terra Nano Lighting Range is specifically designed for smaller terrariums. This makes it suitable for enclosures like the Exo Terra Natural terrarium NANO or MINI, where space is limited.

Versatility: The lighting fixture offers versatility by allowing you to place heat and/or light sources where they are needed within the terrarium.

Aluminum Reflector: The lighting fixture features a highly-polished aluminum dome. This reflector is designed to significantly increase the light, heat, and UVB output. UVB is important for the synthesis of vitamin D in reptiles and other animals.

Adjustable Bracket: The fixture comes with an adjustable bracket that allows you to swivel the light from left to right. This feature helps you direct the heat and light sources to the preferred basking area within the terrarium.

Bulb Compatibility: The heat-resistant ceramic socket of the fixture can accommodate incandescent bulbs with a maximum wattage of 40W. This socket is designed to safely handle the heat generated by such bulbs.

Temperature Regulation: The adjustable bracket also allows you to move the fixture up or down. This adjustment helps you control the distance between the basking spot bulb and the animals, allowing you to regulate the temperature of the basking area more effectively.

On/Off Switch: The fixture is equipped with an On/Off switch that is conveniently mounted on the extra-long power cord. This makes it easy to control the lighting without needing to access the terrarium itself.

Safety: The design of the fixture emphasizes safety, and it comes with a self-adhesive support bracket. This bracket can be attached to the terrarium glass, ensuring stability and preventing accidental falls.

Compatibility: The fixture is specifically designed to be used with Exo Terra’s NANO light bulbs, particularly the 40W type A bulb.

Power Cord: The fixture comes with a 6 ft (180 cm) power cord, providing flexibility in terms of positioning and placement of the terrarium.

 

In summary, the Exo Terra Reptile Dome with Bracket – Nano is a well-designed lighting fixture that aims to provide adequate heat, light, and UVB output for reptiles and other animals in smaller terrariums. Its adjustable features, safety considerations, and compatibility with specific light bulbs make it a suitable choice for creating a suitable captive environment.
