ReptiKing 5.5" Reptile Light Dome — Compact UL-Listed Basking Fixture with Deep Reflector & 1.8 m Cord

ReptiKing's 5.5-inch reptile light dome is a compact, UL‑listed fixture with a ceramic E26 socket and deep aluminum reflector designed for basking bulbs, heat lamps, and ceramic heat emitters up to 150W.

This light dome offers a simple, durable solution for creating a reliable basking or heat source in reptile enclosures. Built with a heat‑resistant ceramic socket, an extra‑deep reflective dome, and a long 6 ft cord with an integrated on/off switch, the fixture accommodates daylight basking bulbs, daytime/nighttime heat bulbs, natural light options, and ceramic heat emitters. Its compact 5.5" diameter fits small to medium terrariums and is backed by ReptiKing support for replacement if damaged.

How does this light dome improve basking areas?

The extra‑deep aluminum reflector concentrates light and UVA output toward a focused basking spot, helping reptiles access a bright, clearly defined area. The design reduces scattered light and increases the effective intensity of compatible basking bulbs.

• Deep reflector boosts directional light and UVA coverage
• 5.5" dome size creates a well‑defined basking zone
• Works with standard daylight and basking spot bulbs

Which bulbs and emitters can I use with the fixture?

The fixture’s UL‑listed ceramic E26 socket accepts common reptile bulbs and ceramic heat emitters up to 150 watts. This flexibility lets you choose daylight basking bulbs, heat lamps for daytime or nighttime use, or ceramic heat emitters for infrared heat without visible light.

• Compatible with E26 base bulbs and ceramic heat emitters
• Supports bulbs and emitters rated up to 150W
• Useful for daylight, basking, and non‑light heat solutions

How do I install and operate the ReptiKing dome?

Installation is straightforward: position the dome securely over the chosen basking spot and plug it into a grounded outlet. The extra‑long 180 cm (6 ft) cord includes an on/off switch for easy control without needing to reach behind furniture or enclosures.

• Hang or rest the dome above the basking area
• 6 ft power cord with convenient toggle switch
• Durable ceramic socket resists high temperatures

What safety and durability features are included?

The ceramic socket is heat resistant and UL‑listed for safer, longer use with high‑temperature bulbs and emitters. The aluminum dome helps dissipate heat while reflecting light, and ReptiKing offers replacement support if the dome is damaged or deformed.

• UL‑listed ceramic E26 socket for heat resilience
• Aluminum reflector minimizes hot spots and focuses light
• Manufacturer replacement warranty for damage or deformation

Who is this for: ReptiKing’s 5.5" reptile light dome suits hobbyists and reptile keepers who need a compact, reliable fixture for creating a strong, focused basking area in small to medium terrariums. It’s especially helpful for owners who want the flexibility to use different types of heat sources (daylight bulbs, heat lamps, or ceramic heat emitters) and prefer an easy‑to‑use corded switch and a durable ceramic socket.
