Light fixtures

So I have some light fixtures in storage from way back when. I can't find the exact ones but they are very similar to the one here:

Reptile Terrarium Lighting Fixtures: Zoo Med Slider Reptile Hood at Drs. Foster and Smith

The main difference between that one and the ones I have is the size and that it's more of a big metal fixture instead of a plastic lid and it can take high wattage heat bulbs and be placed on an enclosure with plastic without melting it unlike a lot of the heat bulb fixtures.

So now that I know most snakes don't NEED special lighting, I have to ask, does intense lighting bother them at all?

Do they not need a "basking" spot or heat bulb and just as long as they have a spot in their enclosure the proper temperature to get heat and a cooler spot they are okay?
