My Zoomed Repti Halogen bulbs arrived today. A 100w and a 150w. They look similar to the Repti Basking Spot and are MUCH smaller than the PAR38 bulbs I've been using.
In terms of output, there is a strong beam in the center which drops off quickly to the sides (not a good sign). I tested the 100w. At 21'' up from the floor, I read 111f in the center. 98 1'' away, 92 2'' away 89 3'' away 84 4'' away. That gives less than a (roughly) 4'' basking area. Not good for something the size of a dragon. For now, I think i'll stick with the PAR38 80w version.
