A lot of you are frustrated at the lack of heat bulbs in stock for reptiles. I wanted to address this major issue and explain the problem for all of us: the US Department of Energy wants to place a ban on GSL or "general service lamps" including all incandescent heat bulbs for reptiles below 125w. The ban is supposed to make sure that lightbulbs produce a certain amount of lumens (or brightness) per watt. Of course reptile lamps are not considered efficient (think everything going LED). This ban is their way of stopping companies from manufacturing these lamps that we need to keep our animals alive.
More info here: https://usark.org/24doe
What we are experiencing right now is a shortage and supply chain issue because not just the reptile hobby needs these types of lights.
I have just placed an order from every supplier I have, so you will see a mixture of brands on the shelf until further notice as I try to stock them all.
You do have a few other options though!
Ceramic Heat emitters, I have a few in stock with more on the way
Radiant heat panels - I can determine what size you need by cage size and get it on a special order basis
Deep heat projectors - I have ordered several that should be in in a week.
Heat pads - you can add a thermostat to better achieve that hot spot you need (thermostats are currently on order)
Other things you can do include emailing the Office of the Assistant General Counsel for Enforcement in the department of Energy. The email is [email protected] and let them know how important your lighting needs are for reptiles.
