This dome is not optimal for use with CHE: it's narrow (5.5 is a diameter in inches, I guess). For CHEs you need the widest dome you can get - 10-12 inches (chicken brooder lamps are often cheap and wide enough). And it looks like it has a bakelite (plastic) socket - they won't last for long with CHEs which get very hot.First things first this is the what I bought to put the Che In based on recommendations
