What Is The Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp<\/h2>\n

It’s a heavy gauge aluminum dome lamp with a ceramic socket. It can handle bulbs up to 100 watts (5.5-inch) or 150 watts (larger lamps).<\/p>\n

The outside is painted black, so it works with any d\u00e9cor. The interior is polished to reflect light better.<\/p>\n

The clamp is coated with rubber. This helps it grab onto whatever you clamp it to better. So you can worry less about it slipping and falling.<\/p>\n

You do need to attach the clamp arm to the lamp before you can use it. But it’s a pretty simple job with just one screw.<\/p>\n

It comes in three sizes (diameter of dome):<\/p>\n
