Anybody have a recommendation for a water resistant light fixture (of the screw-in variety, capable of holding at least a 75w heat lamp bulb) that could be hung from a canopy? Probably would only need room for one bulb in it. I'm using splash-proof swamp bulbs. The double-dome fixture I bought ended up being too big for my enclosure without a major jigsawing project on the canopy.

Ideally it'd be not huge and not look hideous.

Figured I'd post this here rather than in reptiles specifically, as this fixture could be used for something else.

Thanks!
 
You could use something like i did they're all season, indoor outdoor fixtures they're about 4 dollars for the setup uploadfromtaptalk1350494893598.jpg

Would that be OK for a heat bulb, though? It seems like a good suggestion except I'd be worried the plastic might melt.
 
They're actually metal, the housing and fixture itself are metal

Think I'd have to put a metal reflector dome one one of these things for a heat lamp? So that it gets some directionality and isn't just beaming heat everywhere like a mini-sun.
