[QUOTE="Claudiusx, post: 2019690, member: 31715"] Id keep it at the 105 range and let him pick. It's always best to give them options. Give him the option to bask at 105-110, but let him bask at a site that is lower if that's what he wants. He knows what is best for him more so than we do. A lot of times, owners forget that fact. 300w of heat is a lot though. I'd look into better insulating your enclosure or using a different type of bulb/dome. 300 watts of heating isn't too much perse, if it's providing you the temperatures that you need, but it is most likely an indicator that you could do something more efficient. Assuming your kwh cost is 15 cents per hour, you're spending almost $17 a month just on your heat bulbs. If you were able to find a way to make a 75w bulb work, you'd be spending just over $4 a month on the heating. In winter, I use a single 75w bulb in my 4x2x2s and in summer drop it down to around 40w -Brandon [/QUOTE]
