Energy efficient reptile keeping?

I'm not sure if this would really help you at all, but you can buy heat lamps with dimmers that you can change the flow of electricity with, and you can also manage temeratures better. Just a suggestion.

A dimmer doesn't save you energy. The dimmer itself will consume what normally the lamp consumes and so the lamp will have less electricity flowing in it, hence being less bright. So this is not a solution, it's only good to regulate the temperature.
