Zoo Med Repti Basking Lamp 50 Watt for Reptiles

Ordered two 4 months ago and they have both burned out. I have the light set on a timer that runs 10 hours a day. I think that these lamps should work for more than 600 hours... On 4/20/2013 I emailed the manufacturer to inquire if there had been a bad batch of bulbs because of the previously mentioned conditions. They replied that these bulbs are covered by a 90-day warranty and if I supplied them with a copy of my receipt from Amazon the bulbs would be replaced. I did and they shipped two replacement bulbs to me. I raised my rating from 2 to 4 stars based on this warranty coverage, but I may change that AGAIN if these replacements wear out as quickly as the first two!

These bulbs blow pretty fast! Its upsetting but... Our snake needs heat and light so.... Eh

I had this on for 10 hours and the next day it was burned out. I’ve purchased this bulb before without problems.
