We are building Frogmore a new PVC enclosure this weekend, how are you guys mounting your hoods for the basking light and ceramic heat emitters to the underside of the top? Enclosure will be 2 feet tall for reference

Got the enclosure built in about 2 hrs. 4ft long to start, figure we can do it modular style and add on to it. Now just need to figure out the best way to mount the electrical inside.....

Hang ceramic based fixtures from the ceiling with coffee cup holder hooks. Like this:

Don't use the clamps. Remove those and hang the fixtures from the ceiling. You don't need the little guard wires either.
