ProRep Flood Spot Lamp ES

The ProRep Flood Spot Lamp is a daytime vivarium bulb developed specifically for reptile enclosures. It emits visible light, UVA, and heat in the form of short-wave infrared — providing the light and warmth diurnal species need during their active hours. Available in a range of wattages to suit enclosures of different sizes and setups, with an ES (Edison screw) fitting.

Diffused Light and Heat Distribution

Unlike standard spot lamps that concentrate output into a tight beam, the Flood Spot Lamp uses a diffused internal coating on the glass to scatter light and heat evenly across the enclosure. This broad, even spread is well suited to tropical diurnal species that thrive under ambient warmth rather than a single intense basking point — mimicking the kind of light diffusion that occurs naturally through cloud cover.

Choosing the Right Wattage

Select the appropriate wattage for your specific animal, enclosure size, and construction. A lamp that is too powerful for a smaller enclosure will cause overheating, while an underpowered lamp may fail to reach the temperatures your species requires. The variants available on this page cover a range of setups — check the requirements for your animal before selecting.

Installation and Positioning

Mount the lamp directly above the intended warm zone, approximately one third from one end of the enclosure. This positioning allows a natural temperature gradient to form across the vivarium, giving your animal the ability to thermoregulate by moving between warmer and cooler areas. Use only in an approved fitting of the correct type for the lamp's ES base.

Safety and Thermostat Use

A dimming thermostat is strongly recommended to maintain accurate temperatures and prevent overheating. This lamp must always be used with a suitable lamp guard — direct contact between the animal and the bulb will cause burns. Do not operate without appropriate safety equipment in place.

The ProRep Flood Spot Lamp is a reliable, reptile-specific lighting solution for keepers who need broad, even light and heat distribution rather than a focused basking point. Select the wattage that matches your enclosure and species requirements for best results.
