Purchased this 6 weeks ago and the bulb has already blown. These usually last between 12+months. How do I get a refund?

Get in touch with suppliers send proof of purchase and ask for a returns label , but they should refund with you having to return it

can you use this in a canopay cover

Hi Phill, yes you can use this type of bulb in the Exo Terra Compact Top/Compact Fluorescent Terrarium Canopy.

I've bought 4 of these so far and none of them have worked with the exo terra canopy i bought at the same time. are there any solutions you know of?

Have you checked fuse in canopy plug ,I had same problem with mine it wasn't light it was fuse

What is the difference between the pt2187 and pt2186? i see one is 13w and the other 26w, but what does this mean in real terms of viv environment?

hi, the wattage determines the optimum light output so a 13w is suitable for upto 40cm and a 26w upto 60cm if you need more info please call the shop on 01782 777423 hope this helps andrew (petsandpastimesltd.com)
