There are a variety of heat lamps available to help keep your terrarium at the proper temperature for your pet reptile. Reptiles are cold-blooded and need heat to be able to digest their food so a heat lamp is required by most. There are a variety of types available, but the wattage of the bulb is going to be dependent on the type of reptile you are housing and the size of your terrarium.
A basking lamp directs the heat down with a reflective material coating inside the bulb itself.
No, a basking bulb is for heat that most reptiles require and typically does not produce UVB (artificial sunlight).
Heat lamps come in a variety of wattages and the amount of heat produced is dependent on the wattage.
