Ceramic Heat Emitter Question...

[hylia]

I just bought a 60w ceramic heat emitter (Zoo-Med). I have the Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp (also from Zoo-Med, rated up to 100w) and on the box it said that it can be used with ceramic heat emitters. But on Zoo-Med's site, it says to use the heat emitter with the wire cage lamp.

So, now I am wondering, can I use the ceramic emitter with the lamp until I can order the wire cage... or not?

Thanks for your help.

On a side note, I had always heard that infrared light was not supposed to bother the animal at night. But, my snake's pupils are reacting to it. Can I assume that the light may be bothering him? Noticing this is what prompted me to get the heat emitter. I don't remember where, but I had read that the pupils were not supposed to react, though I don't know if that was an accurate fact or not but it seems to make sense.
