Re: Custom PVC CRB Enclosure

Great build. Aren't those lights too bright without the diffuser?(for snakes with sensitive eyes) Unless you have a species that is used to being out in the sun.

They arent as bright as the picture makes them appear, its only 1W of 6K, she has 12W of 6K in her current enclosure, which is still not much brighter than dappled sunlight on a forest floor, the 1W is about as bright as say 9-10PM mid summer (subjective comparison obviuosly) - the picture is deceptive, that said, the enclosure will be planted up with ferns and filled with branches and various other bits and pieces so that she can choose wether to be in the light or not

also at night/eve the lights switch to red, there is one strip @ 0.5W reds
