• Ceramic socket rated to 150 W — takes the heat a basking globe or ceramic emitter throws back into the fitting, where a plastic socket can soften.
• Wire guard around the globe — prevents direct contact between animal and hot glass, the most common cause of terrarium burns.
• Flip base — the cage opens to change a globe without unmounting the fitting.
• 2 m cord already fitted — reaches an outside power point or thermostat without an extension lead inside the enclosure.
• Mounting screws supplied — fixes to the roof or wall panel of a timber or melamine enclosure.

• Caged ceramic lamp holder with 2 m cord fitted
• Mounting screws

• The globe. A basking globe gives a visible hot spot; a ceramic emitter such as the Eco Tech Spiral Heat Emitter gives heat without light at night.
• A thermostat. The Eco Tech EZY SET Digital Thermostat controls the globe this holder carries.
• A thermometer. Check the basking surface with the Eco Tech Dual Probe Digital Thermometer rather than trusting the globe's wattage.

Suitable for fixed heat or UVB inside timber and melamine enclosures, and for any enclosure where the animal can climb to the globe.

Not suitable for outdoor or damp locations, globes above 150 W, hanging by the cord, or bayonet-fit globes. It is not a substitute for a thermostat.

• 240 V / 50 Hz, indoor only, on an RCD-protected circuit. Keep the cord clear of the globe and check it for heat damage at each clean.
• Match the thermostat to the globe. A light-emitting basking globe needs a dimming thermostat; a pulse-proportional unit will strobe it and shorten its life. A ceramic heat emitter runs on either.
• The guard gets hot too. It prevents contact with the glass, not with the cage — keep branches and décor from letting your animal rest against it.
• Never exceed 150 W.

• Eco Tech EZY SET Digital Thermostat — the control this fitting deliberately does not have.
• Eco Tech Dual Probe Digital Thermometer — reads the basking end and the cool end at once.
• Eco Tech Ceramic Screw Socket & Lead 2mtr — the uncaged version, for globes mounted out of reach.
• Eco Tech Rotation Clamp Lampholder 150w max — clamp-mounted and aimable, where you cannot screw a fitting down.

Eco Tech does not publish a warranty term for this fitting. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply regardless — the holder must be of acceptable quality and fit for its stated purpose, and any manufacturer warranty sits in addition to those guarantees. It ships as a standard parcel, with no dangerous-goods or oversize handling.

Can I run a 250 W ceramic heat emitter in it?

No. The Eco Tech caged ceramic lamp holder is rated to a maximum of 150 W, and exceeding that risks the socket and the cord, not just the globe.

Is a globe included?

No. The holder ships with its 2 m cord and mounting screws only. The basking globe, ceramic emitter, compact UVB or LED globe is bought separately.

Does the guard mean I can skip the thermostat?

No. The guard prevents contact burns; only a thermostat controls temperature. A light-emitting basking globe needs a dimming thermostat, and a ceramic heat emitter runs on a pulse or dimming unit.

Can it be mounted above a mesh lid instead of inside?

It is built to be screwed inside the enclosure, and mesh between a UVB globe and the animal cuts UV output substantially. Mount it inside wherever the enclosure height allows a safe basking distance.
