I’ve only been using this for about two weeks, so I can’t comment on the longevity of the product (hence the rating), but so far it has been working very well. The only issue I have with it currently is that it sometimes makes the occasional sound (imagine ceramic bowls lightly tapped together) if it has recently been turned off or on. Hopefully this is not an indication of wear.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this for my bearded dragon and it has been keeping his tank a lot warmer then anything else I have used I have noticed him more active and the difference and how consistent the warmth is in the tank easy to install just like any other light bulb

I bought a 100 watt one for my ball pythons tank and it lasted a month before burning out. I will stick with Zoomed way better product. These are too expensive to only last a month.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This little ceramic heater is just the right bit of added heat that our little bearded dragon neeeded. It installs easily into a preexisting dose light and begins to warm the area immediately. The dragon is happy.

Expensive but cheaper than the others. Hopefully it will last longer than normal.

The first ceramic heat emitter I bought lasted about 3 months, the second lasted 2. It worked fine until they broke, but with the price so high I wouldnt suggest buying this just to replace every 2-3 months.

I bought one of the 150V CHE’s as well as two basking bulbs by this brand for my bearded dragon. I hadn’t heard anything about the brand at the time but figured I’d try it out. It’s been 2 months later and within the past week every single item I bought by this brand has blown. All my previous CHE’s have lasted me nearly a year! I should also mention I had both heating bulbs (100W) and the 150W ceramic heat emitter running at the same time and couldn’t get my tank above 80 degrees Fahrenheit most days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thrive heat emitter works fantastic! You don’t need a heat lamp to keep things heated when you have this heat emitter. My reptile uses it constantly, he’s always on the heated side of the tank. I highly recommend this product!
Chrissymom (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My sons lizard is very happy and warm and my son is happy to be able to sleep without a glowing light at night. This is a game changer. It keeps our lizard warm all day. Does not need to be turned of at night time to promote a comfortable nights sleep for his human.

I just spent a frustrating hour trouble shooting why this bulb was getting barely warm. I tested it in two different ceramic heat bulb sockets, and they both got barely warm. Other heat emitters in the same sockets worked fine. I finally realized the ceramic neck of this bulb is a little thicker than all the other ones I have. Therefore, the ceramic bulb was seating tight against the sockets rather than the metal screw connection being fully tightened into the socket. So, it was basically having a loose connection because of the design of the neck of this bulb. Go with something else.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 60 watt ceramic heater is well packaged and came with operating and safety instructions. The heater is solidly made and fits easily into a standard light socket. It works great for my purposes and would buy again.

On for 6 hours and the bulb is already melting. Also not bringing up ambient temperatures. For 28-32 dollars this is sad
Medeiha (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heat emitting bulb works well for our needs. Fits perfect into our existing hanging lamp and emits just enough heat in the area we need it in. I like that it emits no light, so that it doesn’t disturb sleep/wake cycles. Will be using these bulbs from here on out, rather than other expensive bulbs.

Doesn’t work as it should.i will never buy this product again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this heat lamp which I so badly needed to replace for my lovely ball python Ellie. It works great, gives off heat without “light” so it’s great for sitting the day. Highly recommend for anyone!!
chevausd (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works great! Its very efficient at heating the cage, and the fact that it doesnt shine light is also great so you can use it at night as well. Its also pretty durable and I dont feel worried about it melting like a heat pad! Id recommend for any reptile owner
TCM888 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this, and it does work rather conveniently, but do keep in mind the size of your enclosure. I like the consistent heat and ease of use. My thermometer shows that it keeps the temp steady as needed.

I bought this ceramic heat emitter (CHE) for my boa constrictor after noticing that his cage’s ambient temperature was lower than recommended. After pairing this with Zoo Med Reptile Lamp Stand and Zoo Med Reptile Mini Deep Dome Lamp, his terrarium is finally the perfect temperature, and he’s finally out and active and sheds like clockwork. I definitely recommend this CHE for any reptile owner that wants to raise the temperature of their tank.

I have been buying heat bulbs for my reptile friends and they go out pretty quick. I got this heater and continue to use the uv bulb and my little guy is super happy!! He is more active now and isn’t cold when I pick him up from the heat side.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light is very low profile, unlike the normal warming lights. works pretty well. My tortoise loved it.
RebeccaW2208 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ceramic heat emitter bulb, along with the hanging lamp fixture that attaches to the cage, is the perfect combination to have peace of mind over a traditional heat lamp, which from experience, can get knocked off and catch things on fire. Super easy to use and not have to worry about. Gives off nice steady heat that my beardies like to bask in. Screw in like a regular bulb. Voila.

Product works as it should but it is way too expensive. Paid 29.99 for one. Then I went home only to find I could have gotten 3 in a pack for 19.99. petsupplycanada is too expensive. Will not buy stuff like this here again.

These heat emitters are garbage. I bought two of them and they both worked for less than an hour before they stopped producing heat. Don’t risk your pet. Don’t buy this garbage.

After a week I noticed the tank temp had dropped and my bp was in sleep mode.
Black light IS not visually check-able you have to feel around or on it. So I kept checking the switches then traded out lamps then checked those switches…
These ceramic heat penetrators are necessary for best bp health.
It went from 150watts of heat to tea cozy warmer temperature so I had to trade it out with his red light

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heat emitter seems to work well and was very easy to install. My leopard gecko is super happy, and I am too! It is priced pretty good for the quality. I do hope it lasts for years! Would definitely recommend.

I was looking for a 100 watt ceramic bulb. I chose to go with petsupplycanadas brand, Thrive, instead of the name brand. I’ve only been using it for a few weeks and so far it’s maintained a pretty even and consistent temperature inside the tank. Purchasing this brand saved me about 15 dollars

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried Thrive Rept8le Ceramic Heat Emitter 60 Watt. It fits right into your normal light socket and my turtles love the heat , especially as cold it is lately. It emits a nice warm flow of heat which the love to bask in. Easy to screw in and your done. So far s9 good. Ive had absolutely no issues with the product. And very happy with it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heat emitter does a great job at keeping my bearded dragon warm at night. The no lighting is a good perk because then it can help with the night/day cycle and can be kept on at night for him. Very pleased.
Sharebear1301 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heat emitter made such a huge difference in my 75 gallon bearded dragon tank! It adds much needed additional warmth at night without added light. My dragon does not like heat mats so he stays a bit cooler than I would like. Ever since I put this in the tank, he happily sits under it on his log and is much more active. I’ve been using this 24/7 for about 3 weeks and happy to say, it’s going strong!
cwolfe (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good night time heat emitter for lizards. Its good for a standard 20g tank and works well. It fits standard bulb housing for heat lamps. I plug this into my timer along with the daytime bulb and didnt have any issues. Would recommend to reptile owners.

Justnatalie (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This style is new to me and I really like it! I the flat “bulb” greatly reduces the contact to surface risk and it looks a lot better. The base seems a little bigger than a standard household bulb, I like that it slowly begins to warm and maintains the warmth of our tank. It’s be cool if there was a way to raise or reduce the temperature!

I am learning that THRIVE makes nothing but TRASH. The 100 watt ceramic heat emitter lasted all of two months before burning out. I suggest the one by Zoo Med.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is amazing! Provides the perfect amount of heat without the light. I love this over bulbs because I can keep my tank in any room without the light affecting my eyes. Great product to have.
veronicas7369 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This heater sounds awesome, but sadly I wasn’t able to use it. My turtles are aquatic and it says in the instructions “do not use in wet conditions.” You get the heater, but it sounds like you have to buy another piece, which is some kind of dome, to really benefit from the product. This would be great for keeping a tortoise warm in the winter, or any other reptile. I wouldn’t risk it with reptiles that spend most of their time in the water… It may get too hot or really throw off the aquatic environment you’ve made for your turtles. I was bummed I couldn’t fully try it, but it sounds nice for your cold blooded critters
Beca85 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I got this ceramic heater from thrive. It is different than what I’m used to using because this is not a light but it is a heater that keeps my Reptiles nice and warm. I like the change. And I’m sure my pets lime it too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used petsupplycanadas curbside pickup / order online pickup in store option and I absolutely love the ease of this. Especially on busy days or days we work later than normal. Makes it easy to grab what you need and go. The heat emitter itself is a convenient alternative heat source we keep it on hand for emergency heat if his bulb breaks. My daughter has a bearded dragon. Normally we get 100 watt however this time we found the 60 watt did reach 90 degrees but only from a foot away. We’d buy it again and it works well for our dragons needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have reptiles thst like 90 degrees and others thst like 130 degrees. This got used for the 90 degrees and it’s perfect. I love it because it seems to last forever, it’s nicer looking then traditional lights and it has no light. Which is great for night time. The only real downfall is if it stops working you won’t know unless it’s hooked to a thermostat which honestly it should be anyways. It is larger then normal bulbs so it dispurses heat better and provides a bigger hot spot.

This bulb is amazing! It’s the perfect bulb for your friend at night especially if you keep them in the same room you sleep in. Easy install, lasts forever! Go get one today!!!

For 28.00 you’d think it would last longer than 2 months! Heats up bearded dragon great but not worth the price if you have to change it out so quickly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These heat emitters work great for our bearded dragons. They produce the heat needed. Sometimes the heat can be too much if not placed in the correct size tank. it can make the tank too hot, so you definitely need to be careful with them.
