OMG! I just got this new light fixture in the mail and I went to put the bulb that I had in the old one into it and it didn't fit properly even though it says it fits a 24 inch bulb and when I tried to turn it on it would only work when it was upside down?!?! So I left it alone and figured I would just try to play with it in the morning. Then I heard a loud POP! and when I looked over it was smoking :shock: I buy stuff from this online store all the time and have never had problems, but apparently this is a new item and a MAJOR FIRE HAZARD! I put it outside where it will stay until I package it and return it tomorrow. I was really kind of scared

I think I will just stick with the old one that I have. The only reason I was getting a new one was because the one that came with my tank has a black light bulb for the winter at night and so the uvb bulb doesn't reach to where the basking spot is. I figured its okay though because my beardie just glass dances all day anyways under the uvb bulb when he isn't basking.
But yeah I just wanted to warn everybody about this product. Don't want anyone's house burning down!
