Christmas: Christmas touches the lamp during use and at the beginning of 10 minutes after turning off the lamp Please adjust the distance between the lamp and the animal, less than 30cm. When the heat lamp is hot, water and moisture may cause the ceramic surface to crack. IMPORTANT!! Based on its working principle, the heat emitter itself will reach high temperature which could melt plastic, fiber, paper, etc. So please use a ceramic clamp lamp specially designed for reptiles. And to avoid burning yourself, you should never let anyone touch it while it’s running. If you have any concerns, consult someone with professional kChristmasledge before purchase.
