BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

Looking to replace a basking spot bulb, and I'm not sure if a cheap hardware-store bulb would do the same as the more expensive, reptile branded ones.
Pet stores are few and far between out here, whereas I have a hardware store just down the road.

The details of it:
"Light Bulb Reflector R95 100W E27 Edison Screw"
-Wattage (W) 100.00
-Dimmable
-Bulb Type R95 Reflector

Here's a link to the store's website: https://www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/ge-light ... w/p/109845

Thanks!

Cheap ones do the same as the reptile ones, at least the ones I’ve tried for a bearded dragon so I think it’s the same for a BTS. I’ve not managed to find 100w ones in the uk recently which is the only reason I buy reptile specific ones, otherwise I’ve been fine with the standard shop ones, they’ve given off the heat needed for basking.

and

are nice

I'll have to keep an eye out for those two, I have no idea where they'd be available here. Thank you for the suggestion!
