Jungle Dawn Horizontal LEDs
The original and best selling vivarium-specialty 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
▾ 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
▾ 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.

Zoo Med Terrarium Hoods
High quality hoods for screw-in CFLs, LEDs, or incandescent bulbs!
▾ 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.
