ZooMed Mini Deep Dome and Halogen Par38?

[Wolfeden]

Does anyone know if a standard halogen Par38 bulb will fit in the Mini Deep Dome?

The approximate measurements of the bulb are 4 1/2" diameter (bulb face) by about 5" long.

Thanks.

The concern is the wattage of the bulb and how much heat it creates. What is the dome rated to?

It's a 100W dome and I was thinking about a 75W bulb.

But I really did want to know if the bulb would physically fit in the dome without being too tight, sticking out beyond the dome or just being overly restricted.

But never mind, I wound up getting the larger one after talking to Zoomed customer service and getting the dimensions of both the Mini and Standard Deep Domes. The smaller probably would have worked but it was close and I felt I'd have more options with the larger one.

Thanks as always for your willingness to help.

Ah, I see. Glad you got it sorted man. Sounds like your doing some great research!

Thanks!

I'm lucky to have a second job, late at night, that has plenty of free time to do lots of reading and digging into things online.
