Arcadia Reptile have worked on Deep Heat Projector (DHP) technology for over 10 years and continues to work to improve and refine these helpful reptile heat lamps.
This short video will explain what a DHP is, how, where and why to use one, how to buddy one up with a Halogen or Tungsten flood and how to take accurate measurements of heat.
Genuine DHP lamps by Arcadia Reptile are available in PAR30 50 and 80w and are available globally in either 110-120v or 220-240v

@nicm231 2 года назад

What wattage would you advise for a beaded dragon vivarium size 4x2x2? Are t8 okay to use or t5 better?

@ArcadiaReptile 2 года назад

you would be better with a 75w Halogen flood as a basking lamp. If you have basking at 15" or so then you should use D3+ 12% T5. Effective basking with T8 is very close to the lamp. T5 is brighter, more powerful, has a further UV index projection reach and is flicker free

@danielbiggin7757 2 года назад

I wasn't aware of the Halogen Flood Lamp, and as such haven't used it before with my Heat projector and T5 UVB. Would it be beneficial to get one for my Beardy?

@ArcadiaReptile 2 года назад

yes, using a pair of heating lamps will help fill the spectrum more closely to that of terrestrial daylight and increases bioavailability. The Halogen is bright, inspires natural basking, is quickly warming and IR-A rich. The DHP is IR-B rich and fills that requirement well. DHP can also be used at night as it is a lightless course. Fitted closely together is about the best form of heating available within modern understanding.

@Lobodog6505 2 года назад

What combo of lights/heating should I use for cornsnakes? They're in a 4'x2'x2' enclosure.

@ArcadiaReptile 2 года назад

the system that we designed for snakes in this type of viv is the ShadeDweller-Max 14w ProT5. This will provide the correct UVI at 12" or so from the lamp. You can then use a halogen flood or DHP and dimming thermostat to create your thermal gradient and if you wish to increase lux and grow plants and grasses you can link a JungleDawn-LED Bar. This is standard care now

Can you use this for a brazilian rainbow boa? Someone said this is good to make humidity- is it? And if so what type should I use, and is there with no light?

Being IR-B mostly is is far less drying that IR-C sources such as CHE, RHP and heat mats. There is no visible light, so it works with your UV and JungleDawn-LED bar well

Hi, what would be the correct or compatible dome/ lamp for the 80w Arcadia deep heat projector? Is 80w enough for a “thrive 30"L x 12"W x 12"H terrarium? And can I mount the heat project on top of the mesh? I’m looking to house a leopard gecko, Please let me know, thank you and happy holidays

@ArcadiaReptile Год назад

@markdeturck3686 2 года назад

Does this also warm up the ambiant temperature in the terrarium?

@ArcadiaReptile 2 года назад

yes, but not directly. It will heat your basking rock and substrate and this will radiate long wavelength energy back as warm air which lifts the ambient, just as the sun

@jorgetlilayatzi2655 2 года назад

Is there a difference between an E26 and E27? Do they both do the same thing? Or is it just a fitting difference? Seems like i the only kind i can find is an E26

E26 fittings are used with 110v region products. Typically E27 is used in the 240v regions. All product is as effective as each other, but regional depending on voltage,

What is the average lifespan of your dhp bulbs? I bought three and one has died after about 7months of use. Just curious because it's my first one that went out.

Would the halogen and deep heat projector be good both for a juvenile boa constrictor plugged to a digital thermostat? For an exoterra 40 gallon?

I’m setting up a ball python enclosure. Will a single deep heat projector be enough for both basking and ambient heat? It is a 40 gallon tank. Also can I leave it on 24/7?

This will depend largely on your viv type, decorative style and ambient temps around the viv. You can use the 24/7 with a good day/night dimming thermostat

it is almost impossible for a DHP to burn out from new, they are very robust. This means that if it failed it must have had some damage in transit, if the glass envelope is cracked or the filament moved it wont work. Return to shop for testing and exchange if broken on delivery.
