I think most bulbs will heat up to their highest temperature in just a few minutes. This is not to say, however, that the ground beneath the light will heat up quickly.That's true, thank you!!!!! I'll do some experimenting. I also was reading somewhere thag some bulbs increase in temp as the time goes on. Is that true? Or does it remain the same temp all day long? I have the zoo med double light (the calcium lamp and my heat lamp)
Would these be okay in replace of the coiled light?If its a screened porch, the screen will filter out most of the sun, unfortunately. But if you just soak him daily outside in the sun for 20-30 minutes, then you do not need a UVB bulb. For a replacement the the loop bulb, use a incandescent bulb (google it, it's what people used to use to light their house). These are very inexpensive bulbs, that you can get at the dollar store, walmart, or any hardware store.
