    Re: Regular Light Bulbs in Heating Lamp?

    Yep normal incandescent bulbs are a nice inexpensive old-school way of offering a basking spot. I still have several snakes with setups using them. They're good because of how inefficient they are & waste a lot of their energy on heat vs light output. Low wattage halogens are a great option too but I would recommend a dimmer & always make sure the bulb fits with the fixture specs.
