Anti-Disclaimer:
Before we get into the details, we want to mention that we are not the owners of Jungle Dawntm, but the inventor is a friend of ours. Beyond that, we've got no official connection to the brand. Like our "not-paid-affiliate" disclosure states, we like what performs, recommend what we like, and carry what we recommend. Our lineup is totally based around that principle, and Jungle Dawn is no different. The information you'll read here is as unbiased as it can be. The fact is, Jungle Dawn is actually our least profitable LED option! We like it because it's a super-reliable option which out-performs the competition.
Why We Like Love Jungle Dawn LEDs
Jungle Dawn was the first vivarium specialty LED product in the United States. It was designed by a lighting pro up in Maine, and we've been carrying the brand since we caught wind of it back in 2012. The output is the best in the industry for the LED's size, with the 13W models rated for 960LM and ~49µMol/M²S PAR / 4266Lx @ 12in for every 7.5in long bulb. (Our PAR measurement might be a bit conservative!) If you'll be using two, three, or four bulbs, the lumen output would double, triple, or quadruple and the PAR data would increase (although not as much) too. They are the most reliable horizontal LEDs we've tested, come in perfect size increments, and are simply the best horizontal LEDs for bioactive live vivariums. Ask around. Most people who've used Jungle Dawn stick with it. At NEHERP, we've built more Jungle Dawn powered vivariums than any other brand. We're fans of the mixed color spectrum, which produces a slightly warmer hue of light than most LEDs on the market.
Authentic Jungle Dawn Brand + Warranty
We've been carrying Jungle Dawn since before any of the imitation brands existed, and you can rest assured you'll be getting the real deal. Ours are etched with the "Jungle Dawn" brand name, feature the green chip backing Jungle Dawn is known for, and are as reliable as the reputation suggests. :-) Jungle Dawn LEDs sold by us carry a manufacturer-backed 1-year guarantee which is fully supported directly by us (NEHERP). In the incredibly unlikely event that your LED(s) run into a problem, just shoot us an email.

Jungle Dawn Horizontal LEDs

The original and best selling vivarium-specialty LED!

NEHERP Jungle Dawn Vivarium LED
▾ Show Description ▾
The original vivarium LED bulb features a vented fixture body, a mixed color spectrum, and extremely bright LED diodes! Thanks to superior diode and driver quality, these LEDs offer some of the best measurable PAR & Lux specs of any horizontal LED we've tested. Jungle Dawn screw-in vivarium LED bulbs display colors accurately and grow plants with ease. The super-bright, mixed-color temperature LEDs provide an excellent lumen-per-watt ratio to brightly and accurately illuminate any vivarium. Jungle Dawn LEDs produce less heat than normal CFLs, produce higher levels of PAR light, and use less than half the electricity. All Jungle Dawn bulbs have a 300-degree swiveling base, to ensure the user can safely adjust the light straight down into the enclosure. All Jungle Dawn LEDs carry a 1-year NEHERP backed warranty. Please visit our Vivarium Lighting Kits page to see which LEDs we'd recommend for your specific enclosure. (You'll get a discount on the LEDs and fixture that way, too!)

Jungle Dawn Spotlight LED

The ultimate high-output spotlight for tall enclosures

Mega Jungle Dawn LED 40W High Output Vivarium LED Mega Jungle Dawn LED 40W High Output Vivarium LED Fixture
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
The Jungle Dawn LED Spotlight is our highest output LED, and has a ton of features often sought after for illuminating tall (over 28in) enclosures. Very high PAR, Lumen, and CRI ratings are paired with a 6500K color temperature to provide a natural looking solution to grow flora in very tall enclosures. Unique features include diodes with 60º focused lenses, an internal cooling fan, an efficient aluminum heat sink, and a 40,000-hour rated life. This is an incredibly versatile LED, and the best-priced option for many taller enclosures. It's incredibly high output can easily over-power shorter enclosures, so it's strictly recommended for enclosures between 28-48in tall. Our specially selected compact wire light fixture allows for plenty of air flow for the built-in (silent-running) cooling fan, and is an ideal solution for this LED.

Exo Terra Compact Tops

Our favorite fixtures for screw-in LEDs & CFLs

Exo Terra Compact Tops
Exo Terra Compact Tops

▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
The Exo Terra Compact Top Canopy is a compact fluorescent terrarium canopy designed for use with Exo Terra Glass Terrariums, but can be used for a wide variety of enclosures. This easy-to-install canopy accommodates compact fluorescent bulbs, LEDs, and even low wattage incandescent bulbs. Optional accessories like Exo Terra's Digital Thermometer and Hygrometer can be slid into the special sliding rim on the top of the canopy for a great finished look. Hoods 12" smaller have 1 on/off light switch, and larger hoods have 2. Max CFL bulb wattage: 26W. Max incandescent bulb wattage: 25W.
Fitment Information
The versatility of these fixtures is part of why we like them so much. Every Exo Terra Natural CFL, UVB CFL, and Plant Growth CFL (up to 26W) we carry will fit into every Exo Terra Compact Top. When it comes to LEDs, every one of our Jungle Dawn & Value Grow horizontal LEDs (under 7.5in) will fit, too! Never mix CFL bulbs and LEDs in a single fixture, since doing so will cause the LED(s) to overheat.

Wire Light Fixture

The perfect fixture for LED Spotlights & Heat Emitting Bulbs

Wire Lamp Fixture For LED Spotlights and Bioactive Terrariums
▾ Show Price & Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description:
This wire lamp fixture is our top recommendation for use with our Jungle Dawn and Value Grow LED Spotlights. It's wide base allows for either LED to fit, unlike some of the lower-end options out there. With a max rating of 150W and a ceramic base, it's also a great solution for heat emitters, mercury vapor bulbs, and more. It's open construction allows for rapid heat dissipation around the bulb, which is absolutely critical for many different types of lights and emitters. Includes a basic clamp holder, 6ft wire, and inline on and off switch.

Zoo Med Terrarium Hoods

High quality hoods for screw-in CFLs, LEDs, or incandescent bulbs!

Zoo Med Naturalistic Terrarium Hood
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description:
Zoo Med's terrarium hoods are made from a durable glossy black plastic which is thicker than most alternatives. Thanks to the heavier-duty components, these are the only horizontal hoods we carry which can support incandescent bulbs (up to 60W)! Their relatively thin footprint (front to back) makes them extremely useful for a variety of enclosure types and sizes, although they were specifically designed to fit perfectly on Zoo Med's Naturalistic Terrariums. The 12in models have one socket and one switch. The 18in models have two sockets and two switches. Both use a single plug.
Fitment Information:
These fixtures can support incandescent bulbs up to 60W and CFLs up to 26W with ease. The 12in model fits all Jungle Dawn & Value Grow Horizontal LEDs we carry up to 7.5in. If you'd like to use LEDs on the 18in model, it's important to use one (short) 9W Jungle Dawn in the shorter-socket, since the longer Jungle Dawn & Value Grow LEDs won't fit due to the hood's offset-socket setup. The larger side can fit the longer (up to 7.5in) LEDs without issue. If you'll be using an incandescent bulb and a CFL together in an 18in fixture, it's important to note that only Zoo Med's Reptisun UVB CFLs are the only ones in our lineup marketed for that purpose. Never mix LEDs with Incandescent or CFL bulbs in a single fixture since doing so will cause the LED to overheat.
