heat bulb help

[beardeds4life]

hello, I am building my beardie a cage and am building a thermostat with it for the bulb. I do not want to make a light go on and off so would I be able to use an infrared heat emitter with no bad effects?

You should be able to.

Now here is a plan that will save you money in the end.

Build your cage with double walls with a layer of styrafoam between the walls, it will consume a lot less energy with insulation.

you're still planning on using a UVB day/night cycle right?

This was going to be my question too.:)

yes of course im still using uv im also going to put a normal house bulb next to the heat emitter to offer the light on his basking spot and the sides and front will be glass but the back and the bottom I might insulate if you think that would help
