Im not sure if this is in the right area, but here goes.
I have habistat temperature controllers and ceramic lamp holders coming off them, untill now i was using 250 watt ceramic bulbs to heat my tortoises etc but recently the bulb blew, i have tried putting a few of the glass edison screw bulbs in the fitting such as 60/80 watt but the bulbs blow as soon as power goes to the bulb. i am presuming the reason why they blow is due to the bulbs not being man enough for the light fitting. can anyone help?
If need be i have at least 10 habistats so i can swap and sort etc.
Thanks
