One bulb that does the whole job — meet the PowerSun, the 160W one.

Brand new in the box: Zoo Med PowerSun UV, a self-ballasted mercury vapor lamp that puts out essential UVA, UVB, light AND heat all at once. No juggling a basking bulb plus a UV tube plus a fixture for each — this is the all-in-one the serious keepers swear by. The UVB helps keep metabolic bone disease away, the flood-lamp design spreads it evenly with no nasty hot-spots, and the nickel-plated threads won't corrode in a humid setup.

Self-ballasted means zero extra gear: it screws right into a standard lamp fixture with a ceramic socket (just make sure the fixture is rated for 160 watts). It throws usable UVB up to 6 feet, so it's made for big terrariums — bearded dragons, tortoises, iguanas, monitors, tegus. Zoo Med's guide puts it 12–16 inches over the basking spot for desert sun-lovers like beardies. And since a PowerSun's UVB lasts about 12 months of use, this never-run one has its whole life ahead of it.

Retails $109.99 — that's $123.19 with tax. Mine's $55. You save $68 and your reptile gets a tan.
