Lucky Reptile ThermoSocket + Reflector Small

The Lucky Reptile ThermoSocket + Reflector is a robust lamp holder and reflector system built for use inside terrariums. Combining a porcelain E27 lamp holder, a steel reflector, a wire mesh guard, and a silicone power lead, it gives reptile keepers a safe and focused lighting solution that works with a wide range of vivarium bulbs. Available in small and large sizes to suit different lamp types and enclosure setups.

Built for Terrarium Use

The steel reflector serves two purposes: it concentrates light and heat output into the enclosure and prevents animals from being exposed to direct glare from the bulb. The wire mesh guard sits across the bottom of the reflector, creating a physical barrier between the bulb and any animal that gets too close — an important safety feature in any live vivarium setup.

Lamp Holder and Construction

• E27 porcelain lamp holder — handles high operating temperatures reliably
• High-quality steel reflector focuses output and shields the bulb
• Wire mesh protector prevents direct contact with the lamp
• Silicone power lead rated for high-heat environments
• Suitable for use with lamps up to 300W

Installation and Compatibility

Mounting hardware for internal terrarium installation is included, so no additional fixings are needed to get it up and running. The connector is also compatible with Bright Control ballasts, allowing straightforward plug-and-play integration. A separate clamp fitting is available if you need to use it as a clamp lamp.

Which Size Do You Need?

The small reflector is designed for use with Halogen Sun and Bright Sun UV lamps, as well as Compact UV Sun bulbs. The large reflector suits straight energy-saving bulbs and mercury vapour UV lamps. Both sizes support lamps up to 300W. Select the appropriate variant from the options above to match your current bulb type.

For keepers who want a reliable, heat-safe lamp holder that installs cleanly inside the enclosure and keeps animals protected from direct bulb contact, the Lucky Reptile ThermoSocket + Reflector is a straightforward, well-engineered choice.
