Arcadia Halogen Heat Lamp – 75 W is a powerful, energy-efficient halogen basking bulb designed to deliver bright, Infrared-A rich heat with exceptional colour rendition and long-lasting performance. This robust PAR30 halogen lamp features a frosted lens, hard-glass splash-resistant construction and an internal metal reflector for optimal light and heat delivery to the basking zone. This reptile basking bulb emits no UV and must be paired with a suitable Arcadia UVB system for complete reptile lighting. Key Benefits: Bright Infrared-A rich heat output for strong natural basking zones PAR30 wide-beam design creates a smooth, even basking zone Energy-efficient halogen lamp that outperforms standard tungsten bulbs Dimmable and compatible with E27 ceramic lamp holders Hard-glass, splash-resistant construction with frosted lens When To Use: Use this lamp when you need a powerful, bright basking source that provides concentrated, natural-feeling heat. Ideal for desert species, active diurnal reptiles and larger vivaria where strong basking intensity is required. Suitable For: Suitable for bearded dragons, uromastyx, monitors, blue tongue skinks, tegu juveniles, chameleons, basilisks, water dragons and any species requiring intense daytime basking temperatures. Technical Specifications: Wattage: 75 W Bulb Type: Halogen flood Lens: Frosted PAR: PAR30 Kelvin: 2750 K warm colour Voltage: 230–240 V UVA/UVB Output: None (heat only) Fitting: E27 screw fitting Construction: Hard glass, splash resistant Safety & Thermostat Guidance: This lamp must be used with a dimming thermostat to regulate heat output and maintain safe basking temperatures. A heat lamp guard is essential to prevent accidental contact with the lamp. Required for safe use: Dimming Thermostat – required for safe temperature control of basking heat lamps. Heat-rated fittings – suitable ceramic E27 lamp holders and protective heat lamp guards. Best Practice Installation: Install vertically in a ceramic E27 heat-rated lamp holder Position above a basking platform to create a defined hotspot Pair with a suitable Arcadia UVB system for complete lighting provision Avoid angled installation, which reduces beam efficiency Measure basking and cool-end temperatures daily Frequently Asked Questions: Does the Arcadia Halogen 75W lamp produce UV? No. It produces heat and visible light only. UVB must be provided separately. Is the 75W halogen lamp dimmable? Yes. It is fully compatible with dimming thermostats for safe heat control. What does PAR30 mean? PAR30 refers to the reflector size and shape, indicating a wider, more powerful beam compared to PAR20 lamps. Is the lamp splash resistant? Yes. The hard-glass construction and frosted lens offer robust, splash-resistant performance. Can this replace higher-wattage tungsten lamps? Yes. Halogen technology delivers efficient Infrared-A heat, often outperforming traditional tungsten bulbs of higher wattage.
