Ceramic Heat Emitter Question...

[hylia]

In case anyone is ever browsing this site with a similar concern, I though I'd post part of the response I got from Zoo-Med.

The Ceramic Heat Emitters are approved for use with the LF-10 (Wire Cage Clamp Lamp), LF-12 (8.5” Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp), and LF-15 (10” Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp.) I do not recommend using our Ceramic Heat Emitters in the 5.5” clamp lamp as there may not be enough ventilation in the base of the dome. The 8.5” or 10” domes have been tested and approved for use with the Ceramic Emitters.

So I guess I need a new fixture either way, since I have the 5.5" one. I wonder why it would say suitable for CHEs on the box??? Anyways... better safe than sorry...

Just drill vent holes.
