I use a 60 watt regular lamp from the dollar store for basking light . A che on a thermostat set to 80 . As for your wattages of lamps to use you will have to test lamps. So get a 60 watt and see if it gets basking temps T95/100 . Make sure your humidity is at 80. And night temps don't fall below 80.
